Acme.sh: Issue certificate for multiple subdomains with different webroots

[ghost]

Consider an issue command below:

acme.sh --issue -d example.com -w /home/dir1 -d sub1.example.com -d www.example.com -d sub2.example.com -w /home/dir2

I expected that acme.sh writes to "/home/dir1" directory when verifying domains example.com, sub1.example.com, and www.example.com BUT switch to "/home/dir2" for sub2.example.com. However, examining the debug log shows that it always uses the last webroot directory for all domains, that is, acme.sh writes to "/home/dir2" even for sub1.example.com.

Question is, how do I issue a single certificate for multiple subdomains with different webroot?

If you want to use different webroot for each sub domain, you MUST specify webroot for EACH domain.

acme.sh --issue  -d example.com   -w /home/dir0 \
  -d sub1.example.com  -w /home/dir1 \ 
 -d sub2.example.com  -w /home/dir2

if you want to share the webroot folder , the domains must be at the ending.

acme.sh  --issue  \
  -d example.com           -w /home/dir0 \
  -d sub1.example.com  -w /home/dir1 \
  -d sub2.example.com  -w  /home/shared_dir \
  -d sub3.example.com  \
  -d sub4.example.com   

example.com will use dir0

sub1.example.com will use dir1

all the left domains sub2 , sub3 and sub4 will share the same folder: shared_dir

Thanks, though it wasn't so obvious :)

Just a little note: After issuing my cert and the cron already in place, I wanted to set a renew-hook command to reload the new cert from disk after renewals but couldn't find a way to do so. After looking around, I manually edited the "/root/.acme.sh/{domain}/{domain}.conf" file and set the "Le_RenewHook" key. Is this alright or could there have been a better way to do so?

[Neilpang]

Yes, it's right, but not recommended.

you can use --install-cert command, with --renew-hook

Or you can also use --issue command

Thanks man. Closing now.

Using --renew-hook with --install-cert after a certificate is issued does not set the "Le_RenewHook" key in "{domain}.conf" ??

[Neilpang]

sorry, please use --issue instead.

If you want to use different webroot for each sub domain, you MUST specify webroot for EACH domain.

acme.sh --issue  -d example.com   -w /home/dir0 \
  -d sub1.example.com  -w /home/dir1 \ 
 -d sub2.example.com  -w /home/dir2

if you want to share the webroot folder , the domains must be at the ending.

acme.sh  --issue  \
  -d example.com           -w /home/dir0 \
  -d sub1.example.com  -w /home/dir1 \
  -d sub2.example.com  -w  /home/shared_dir \
  -d sub3.example.com  \
  -d sub4.example.com   

example.com will use dir0

sub1.example.com will use dir1

all the left domains sub2 , sub3 and sub4 will share the same folder: shared_dir

Please, add this comment to the main documentation in a prominent way!!!

I have lost 2 days for this "little" detail!!!
