  • Support for BIND DNS has been removed from Plesk for Windows due to security and maintenance risks.
    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.

Question Wildcard SSL/TLS certificate for subdomain

_Andreas_

New Pleskian
I have a certificate for *.example.com
I want to use this on a Webspace sub.example.com
After installing it it shows in plesk under SSL/TLS Certificates;

Wildcard SSL_TLS certificate -> not secured
*.sub.example.com

To have it working I would expect there *.example.com

Is this setup supported at all ?

Background:
I have already a Webspace example.com
and I cannot make there a subdomain sub.example.com for organizational reasons.
Thats why I set up sub.example.com as (main) Webspace
 
The Page is valid when opening with a browser, no certificate errors.
Looks like just to be an issue with the plesk GUI.

You have possibly answered your own question in that section above.
Let's Encrypt Wildcard Certificates work perfectly in Plesk > IF < you have domains / sub-domains (and all of their associated DNS) setup correctly.
We have lots, setup as per the last line above i.e. all sub-domains are exactly that; sub-domains of domains. We have no issues at all and never have had.
You may need to re-think those 'organizational reasons' and /or make any required changes to your current setup.
