• Debian 11 is approaching its end-of-life (vendor EOL date - August 31, 2026). Plesk Obsidian 18.0.80 will be the last release to support it.
    If you are running Plesk Obsidian on Debian 11, we recommend you upgrade those servers to Debian 12 using our dist-upgrade tool.
  • We plan to deprecate and remove the support for XML RPC protocol versions earlier than 1.6.9.1 in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.82. We strongly recommend that you update all existing integrations using earlier versions of the XML RPC protocol to comply with the version 1.6.9.1 specification.

Question Let's Encrypt: renewal of certificates with manually added add-on domains

Basic Pleskian
Hi,

I'm running a Linux server with the Plesk (Onyx, version 17) LetsEncrypt extension (version 2.5.1). I want to secure some aliases of a subdomain that are defined with the ServerAlias directive in an Apache configuration file. (Note: the reason for this setup is that the Plesk interface doesn't allow to define aliases for subdomains, only for main domains.)

I’ve successfully managed to add domain aliases to a certificate with the -d option on the command-line:

Code:
plesk bin extension --exec letsencrypt cli.php --expand -d sub.domain.com -d subalias1.domain.com -d subalias2.domain.com --webroot-path "/var/www/vhosts/domain.com/sites/sub.domain.com"

So far, so good, but I’m still waiting for the renewal date to see what will happen. I’m wondering: when the certificate will be automatically renewed, will all domain aliases be included again, or will only sub.domain.com be included in the new certificate?

Note: I've noticed this in the release notes for version 1.3 of the LE Plesk extension:
[+] Store CLI options for certificate renewal (issue #46)
...which seems to suggest that the automatic renewal process might remember to renew all add-on domains as well, but I'm not sure if I'm understanding correctly (the issue referred to is
Have console command for automated deployment. · Issue #46 · plesk/letsencrypt-plesk · GitHub)

Any clarification would be much appreciated!

Ron
