I'm at my wits end trying to figure out why my Sites are resolving (or not resolving) the way they are. A little background. This is a migration from SC 9.1.1 to SC 10.2. I've gone through the upgrade guide to upgrade our environments. Everything seemed to go smooth for the Standalone Single instance, but for our CD/CM environment I'm running into issues getting the site to correctly resolve according to the SXA site manager.
Here are the details.
App Service Environment:
- CM app service has the host domain: CM.sitedomain.com, preview.sitedomain.com
- CD app service has the host domain: CD.sitedomain.com, CD2.sitedomain.com as well as www.sitedomain.com and sitedomain.com
SXA Site entries in the Site grouping for the tenant are as follows:
MainSite
- site name: main_site_com
- valid for environment: *
- target hostname: www.sitedomain.com
- hostname: www.sitedomain.com|sitedomain.com|cd.sitedomain.com|cd2.sitedomain.com
- virtual folder: /
- start item: mainsite/home
- database: web
Preview
- site name: preview_site_com
- valid for environment: *
- target hostname: preview.sitedomain.com
- hostname: preview.sitedomain.com
- virtual folder: /
- start item: mainsite/home
- database: master
In SXA Site manager the order is as follows:
- shell
- login
- admin
- service
- modules_shell
- modules_website
- main_site_com
- preview_site_com
- website
No conflicts in site manager!
So here are the scenarios. Let's start with Preview_site_com first
as I have it above, when I hit preview.sitedomain.com it is pointed to the CM server, but it is loading the main_site_com which is pointed to the web database when I check the sxa_site entry in the cookies. If I move preview_site_com before main_site_com, it seems to work correctly and loads the site with the sxa_site entry showing preview_site_com
when I try to hit cd.sitedomain.com or cd2.sitedomain.com which is pointed at the CD app service, I always get sxa_site "website" in the cookie which is the default site with the girl with the phone. It's like it doesn't even try to resolve. I've even removed the target hostname from the main_site_com entry or replaced it with cd or cd2 to no avail.
This configuration is working in our production 9.1.1 environment, so I'm not sure why this new 10.2 environment is resolving weirdly.
Update: On the CD app service, I can hit an aspx file directly with the CD or cd2 subdomains. It seems like Sitecore is not processing the request?
