I created a website (Nginx) and everything work well except when I try to browse the subdomain, it seems like even a subdomain prefix is threated like it was "www" because it always lead to the main domain except when I add the port number.
ex : example.com => take me to the homepage. All good
sub.example.com => Take me to the homepage. Not good
sub.example.com:3000 => take me the the subdomain... Good but not practical, I would like to achieve the same result without the ":3000"
server {
listen 80;
listen [::]:80;
server_name *.example.com;
return 301 https://$host$request_uri;
location / {
proxy_pass http://localhost:3000/;
}
}
server{
listen 443 ssl;
server_name *.sexample.com example.com;
ssl_certificate /etc/letsencrypt/live/example.com/fullchain.pem;
ssl_certificate_key /etc/letsencrypt/live/example.com/privkey.pem;
location / {
proxy_pass http://localhost:3000/;
try_files $uri $uri/ =404;
}
}
I forgot to mention I am using wildcard-subdomains to handle the subdomains request
I just found my old file setting which was somewhat hidden in my computer and I added this :
in the "location /" block and now it is working like a charm, so if anyone of you . understand what that mean, feel free to elaborate
