Subdomain to Open WebAdmin Console on Port 7080

[Avid1]

I'm trying to setup a subdomain to log in the the OLS WebAdmin panel. So that, admin.domain.com maps through to the WebAdmin panel at domain.com:7080

I'm using quic.cloud and domain.com:7080 breaks as they only proxy ports 80/443 - sothey have recommended creating a separated subdomain to access the console. (Of course SERVER_IP:7080 functions to get to the console, but I can't use SSL for that, thus the subdomain requirement.)

I have read through similar questions/answers in the forums and am still confused as to how to set this up. (Many seem to pose this question for Cyber panel usage, which I am NOT using). I tried setting up a new virtual host and then mapping the VH to the https listener .. but am perplexed as to how to set this up.

Is there a KB doc on how to do this? If so, I can't find it.

Yup .. I managed to lock myself out of the Admin console as I attempted to add a listener for port 7080. Had to spin up a new server from a recent backup to get running again.

There is a listener in the admin console section, but there is no ability to affiliate that with a subdomain (at least that I can see). Hmm.

For images from the marketplace, a fast method is to use the script to setup the Virtual host with a subdomain and apply the certificate with Let's Encrypt,

/bin/bash <( curl -sk https://raw.githubusercontent.com/litespeedtech/ls-cloud-image/master/Setup/vhsetup.sh ) -d subdomain.example.com -le admin@example.com

Then you should be able to visit the web admin with the valid domain.

You can also point the admin's SSL cert location to the subdomain's certificate.

Thank you. That helped!
