Subdomains and separate apps

[daviedR]

Hi,

I am using Serverpilot and have a separate app for my subdomain. For example:

Main app

• App name: mydomain
• Domains: mydomain.com, www.mydomain.com

Dev app

• App name: mydomain-dev
• Domains: dev.mydomain.com, www.dev.mydomain.com

In you bash script, we need to input the app name. For the dev app, should I create separate certificate (considering it's a different app on ServerPilot) OR use the main app certificate?

I tried to make separate certificate for mydomain-dev, but my serverpilot went down and I had to remove the mydomain-dev.ssl.conf file and reboot nignx-sp to get it working again.

Any idea?

www.dev.mydomain.com is not a valid URL so trying to create a certificate for that will more than likely fail?

I create separate apps for development domains.

when creating your certificate using the script, just enter the single domain dev.mydomain.com and within the app in SP remove the www.dev.mydomain.com domain from the SP control panel? Then try again

Just my thoughts. :)

Oh great! Yeah the www.dev.mydomain.com is the issue, the www subdomain is not registered as A DNS record on my server. I enter the dev.mydomain.com on the bash script and it works!

Thanks!
