I have set it up with podman, running it with the following configuration which does work fine:

podman run -d \
        --name privaxy-serv \
        --network host \
        --user 1000:1000 \
        --userns keep-id \
        -e PRIVAXY_PROXY_PORT=8100 \
        -e PRIVAXY_WEB_PORT=8200 \
        -e PRIVAXY_IP_ADDRESS=192.168.12.10 \
        -e RUST_LOG=info \
        -v /home/server1/privaxy-serv/:/conf ghcr.io/joshrmcdaniel/privaxy:dev

I am getting the error "String contains an invalid character" when I try to upload both the CA Certificate and CA Certificate Key, or if I paste in the contents of the files. I tried to upload the previous certificate and key I was using for the other versions of Privaxy, I did not use the pre-generated one that was in the config file already.

I was able to get around the certificate upload errors by manually editing the file at /home/server1/privaxy-serv/config and manually pasting in the certificate and key, which did work fine once restarting the container.

These are the errors that are printed to the browser console if it is of any use when I tried to upload the existing certificates (the first one from general.rs is when I tried to upload the CA Certificate, stating "Data provided to an operation does not meet requirements" and the second error "String contains an invalid character" happened when I tried to upload the CA Certificate Key).
