Bugs when setting up wildcard DNS?

clinton4

Regular Pleskian
Hi,

I am using Plesk Panel 9.5.4 on a Centos box.

I do this to enable wildcard DNS on a domain.

1. Create CNAME record *.mydomain.com
2. Create vhost.conf with the line: ServerAlias *.mydomain.com
3. Restart Apache.

Now, when i visit xxx.mydomain.com, i get the default plesk page. Not the main mydomain.com page. This is wrong!

To get the wildcard to point to the main mydomain.com page, i need to*click the suspend button and then click the unsuspend button. Now the wildcard points to the main mydomain.com page.

Why do i need to suspend/unsuspend to get this to work correctly?

Also i would like to say, there is so MANY anoying unresolved bugs with all Plesk products i have used in my time. So i'am realy considering changing software.
