Error Message

I have two domains. In the first one, I want to create a subdomain using my own domain name, and it works. For example, my domain is mete.com, and I can create auth.mete.com. But I can’t do this with the other domain I createdtoday. Why?

Welcome to the forum

The only time you can create a sub sub domain (a sub domain on a free sub domain) is if it’s the free subdomain you used to create the account.

Other than that, if you’re using your own custom domain, you can add free sub domains on that.

That’s no longer the case for new accounts, only older accounts have this. I think this was changed a year ago or so.

That’s why it worked on your original account but not the new account.

The reason for this is that sub-subdomains cannot be protected with SSL anymore. Which is of course very bad for an auth subdomain.

As an alternative, you can either setup the auth endpoint in a subdirectory (e.g. metas.gt.tc/auth) or create a separate free subdomain (e.g. metas-auth.gt.tc).

ofcourse it was… I completely forgot that, because I’ve been using a custom domain for longer than that haha
