• Halloween is coming! To celebrate the occasion, we dusted off a couple of old skins, and even created a brand new one (Pixel).
    To get into the festive spirit, install the Skins extension.
  • The new Python extension is now available. It allows customers to deploy and manage WSGI-based Python applications on their websites directly from Plesk.
  • The Plesk Mobile apps for iOS and Android and the Plesk Mobile Center extension have been deprecated, and are no longer available for new installations. In Plesk Obsidian 18.0.84, the Plesk Mobile Center extension will be removed from servers during the upgrade, and the Plesk Mobile apps will lose their server management features.
  • The Social Login extension has been deprecated and will be removed in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.84. After that, it will no longer be possible to log in to Plesk with a Google, Facebook, GitHub account, or with a passkey. Plesk usernames and passwords, as well as logging in with a WebPros Account, are not affected.

Can't add domain alias

I have two sites on a Plesk server, siteA.com and siteB.com. siteA.com is live and siteB.com is under development, but has a live site on another server, so DNS for siteB.com points to another server. I want the client for siteB.com to be able to look at the development on my server. So, I created an A record for siteB.siteA.com in siteA.com's DNS settings, then went to siteB.com to add a domain alias for siteB.siteA.com to it. That way, when somebody typed siteB.siteA.com into their web browser, it would pull up the development siteB.com that resides on my server, not the live siteB.com that resides on another server.

Plesk won't let me do this. When I try to add the siteB.siteA.com domain alias to siteB.com, it says

Error: DNS records for domain with such name already exist
 
It looks like it works fine w/out adding the A record to siteA.com. I just need to create the domain alias on siteB.com. I'm not sure if I have to check the 'sync dns w/ primary domain' box or not, but it looks like it works with it on.
 
Now I'm trying to do the same thing with another domain and it's not working.
