• 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.

Subdomains not working with domains containing wildcard

TomBeh

New Pleskian
I've migrated from 9.x to a 10.4.4 server, and have the following problem.

I have a domain with a wildcard, CNAMED to an application server elsewhere. *.example.com CNAME live.app.com

Originally the subdomains were A records in the single DNS zone. The problem is that now subdomains have their own DNS zone, the wildcard in the primary zone's master domain takes precedence. And I can't add the subdomain to the main DNS zone as it conflicts.

All the other solutions I can find to this are to do with ordering domains for catch all using Apache Vhost ordering, not using a wildcard DNS record. The apache solution won't work here as the wildcard domain (lower priority than subdomains) is hosted on a different server.

Any way around this? I'm almost at the point of giving up and moving the affected subdomains to another domain that doesn't have a wildcard. But that's going to cause lots of problems and work in itself. Is there a way back to the original single zone method for this domain?
