something before .domain not working anymore

[MJ]

I remember back in the day that aaa.domain.com worked and that you could login with multiple accounts (like everything you put on xx on xx.domain.com could be logged in with another user.

But if I try to do it now I will see a screen wth DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NXDOMAIN

What I need to do to get it back like how it was before?

[scottalanmiller]

What you are mentioning is called a "subdomain" and that will always work for email. An email at a subdomain is unrelated to mails at the parent domain. They use different A records, MX records, everything. So if you have ...

bob@mydomain.com
bob@thisisnt.mydomain.com

Those two things have no email relationship to each other. Each is completely and utterly discrete.

[scottalanmiller]

If you are doing this in reverse and talking about having two NodeBB servers, one at mydomain.com and one at anotherof.mydomain.com those are likewise, unrelated, and would be independent websites. Of course, if you point them both to the same database that will cause issues.

We do not use mails or something like that. It has worked before a few versions back (I think 1.6.x) but now it won't work anymore.

Or does https have something to do with it?

I'm still not sure what you're asking for. You could give an example of what you want?

Yes. I try explain with screenshots.

This as you can see works

This does not work, but did work in the past.

Back in the day when I go to aaa.keen.wtf I could login with an other account or post as guest. But now I can't reach my site anymore with aaa. (or anything else).

Verify your SSL certificate or delete your browser cache

That's an SSL cert configuration thing, not related to NodeBB. What is your proxy that is handling the certs?

I think nginx is that possible?

I thinks your browser

[MJ]

@The-Worms tried other browsers and other PC/laptop but same problem.

[The Worms]

Ok

Ok,

What's your configuration vhost ngnix and config.json nodebb ?

I'm now not home, I will post them when I'm home.

How do I find vhost? nginx and config.json I know how to find. But vhost not.

[The Worms]

Ngnix Vhost :

nano /etc/nginx/sites-enable/forum.domainname.com

Config.json

nano /your_path_nodebb/config.json

[MJ]

@The-Worms

Json

[The Worms]

Try desactive your HTTPS Everywhere extension ?

nano /etc/nginx/sites-enable/forum.domainname.com

this does not work, I have only a file called default in this folder.

[The Worms]

Ok show me defaut file
