  • The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.
  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

Question lets encrypt certificate per subdomain

Peter Carlsson

Basic Pleskian
Hi,

Lets say i have a customer domain (www.customer.com) currently pointing to an other server/provider and i want to point subdomains to Plesk and have ssl on them.

I add the subdomains as separate domains/sites like stage.customer.com and api.customer.com and then i want to add ssl to them.

Are the certificate bound to the root domain or do i add an certificate for each site/subdomain?
 
So long as the subdomains are live and accessible there should be no problem.. There is a limit on the number of sub domains you can register in a month (around 20 if I recall)

No reason why this should not work at all. As far as any one is concerned there is no link between your sub domains and the main domain on another server.
 
I got it to work but not in Service provider view. I don't care about customers and subscriptions so it's no big deal.

In Power User View i created a new webspace for each customer and then added sub domains like stage.customer.com and api.customer.com and then there were no problem with Lets Encrypt so i'm happy now.
