I have a problem and I was hoping that some of you out there might be able to help me.
I create the sub-domain correctly it all matches with the domain but when i login in the main domain it should be logged in the subdomain too, but it isn't

I have the following case. My company provides a web solution for our customers and we give them a link to access it: solution.company.com/customerkey
My customer has a website customer.com. He wants to use subdomain solution.customer.com (his own domain)
How do I do the redirect and he uses his own domain while accessing my webserver in reality?
I do know that on one side I have to use CNAME DNS record on the customer side pointing to my domain.
But what do I do on my side?
And also can I do the CNAME redirect with a subdomain and a subfolder solution.company.com/customerkey
I'm trying to use the recently announced (in preview) managed certificates for Azure app service. One of the limitations is that you can't get one for naked domains. eg.: you can get one for www.domain.com, but not domain.com.
In my (current) web.config, I'm redirecting from 'naked' to 'www' anyway using rewrite rules, so beeing limited to 'www' is not a real problem. However, as the redirect takes place at the web.config level, that is, after the request has hit the webserver, this is too late: when 'domain.com' gets hit and tries to redirect, the browser has already seen the insecure connection to the naked domain (depending on browser) will display a warning page.
So how is one supposed to do deal with the "naked" domains? No more redirects at all? Or are there other methods to do this besides web.config configurations? I did look, but did not find anything.
Adding to Jack's suggestions.
Currently, the preview offering only supports CNAME based validation. Thanks for the feedback and it is on our list of future improvements to consider however we do not have any ETA on this yet. So, request you to up-vote this feedback post on Uservoice-

Alternatively, you may try to forward apex domains to subdomain such as www.
So based on your requirement, to redirect -
https://yourdomain.com -> https://www.yourdomain.com
If you are using App Service Domain, you can forward your domain by going to 'Advanced Management portal' of the domain resource.
So, after a long time, Azure finally supports this. One can simply use a managed cert for naked domains.
See here: https://azure.github.io/AppService/2021/03/02/asmc-apex-domain.html
In this scenario, I think a redirect is necessary.
We can get some clues from other international websites. For example: when I try to access http://google.com, actually I will get a 301 redirect which redirects me to http://www.google.com, and then I will get a 302 redirect which redirects me to https://www.google.com/?gws_rd=ssl
So, as managed certificate does not support naked domain. I suggest you directly add your www subdomain to your web app. And then create managed certificate to that www subdomain.
And, finally, you can add 301 and 302 redirect rules in your DNS provider, which will ensure all requests to naked domain will be redirected to www subdomain. This could be done in your DNS provider before your web app.
So after some time trying things, here's how i ended up dealing with this:
- Using managed domain certificates for all hostname.Domain.tld names
- Using the letsencrypt script (from extensions) to get a cert for the naked domain
Once azure will provide certs for the naked domain, i will retire the script.
I have a setup like this:
A website at domain abc.com
Azure CDN points to it. So if you go to abc.azuredge.net you see abc.com
content. In the URL bar you see abc.azuredge.net.
I have another domain, qwe.com, I want abc.qwe.com to be the custom domain for the CDN endpoint.
In qwe DNS settings, I set a CNAME record, for abc to point to abc.azuredge.net.
I add the abc.qwe.com as a custom domain in the CDN endpoint.
My expectation:
I go to abc.qwe.com. I see abc.com content, from abc.qwe.com domain.
What happens: I go to abc.qwe.com, it responds with a parmanent redirect to abc.com.
Did I miss configured something, or it's supposed to work this way? I don't understand why it doesn't do a redirect on abc.azureedge.net, but if I add a layer on top of it, suddenly it just redirects to the origin.
In my case it ended up being not related to CDN. It was actually rules on a server that were doing a redirect under certain conditions, e.g. http to https, or www redirect.
As a side note, https redirect can be tricky. Now chrome uses https by default, so if you type in the url, it will go to https, thus no redirect. But if you select your custom domain text in azure portal and choose "go to xxx", it will actually go to http version, which will result in a redirect. So you might be under impression that you are going to https and it was redirecting, when in fact it was http.
I was planning to delete the question, but Erik H commented that he's having same issue so I decided to self-answer. Maybe it will help someone.
I have 2 websites in my hosting account at bluehost. The main domain (maindomain.com) has an SSL and there is one registration page where I need to use https//www.maindomain.com.
I also have an add-on domain (addondomain.com) and am hosting the website for that in the same account. There is no necessity for a secure connection.
However, I want to make sure that if https://addonsite.com is used, it redirects to http://addonsite.com. The reason is that now if you go to https://addonsite.com, it shows that in the URL address window, but the maindomain.com website loads.
I have tried adding redirects to both .htaccess files (for maindomain.com and addondomain.com), but cannot seem to get it to work. Is it possible to do this with a main domain and add on domain if there is an SSL on the main domain?
My web site (mywebsite.name) is on a shared hosting and I have an addon domain (addondomain.eu) there. Since it is an addon domain on a shared hosting anyone can access my addon domain from addondomain.mywebsite.name
How can I restrict acessing to addondomain.mywebsite.name with htaccess?
I'm sure you could use an urlrewrite to block access to the site from a specific url. but a better question is why would you want to? all you're doing is blocking legitimate visitors. a better option would be to redirect people back to your main domain.
