Backup Prod -> Snap -> Build Test -> Change Address

actually this works.

don´t know why it didn´t before, but right now that´s how i do it.

  • Snap of Prod.
  • Rebuild Dev from Prod Snap
  • change app.ylm “DISCOURSE_HOSTNAME” to new DevAdr
  • Rebuild App

you should not do this to often in a week, as there is a rate limit for ssl trusted certificates. Best practise:
snap Prod, rebuild Dev, Snap Dev

Every Rebuild on same Address, dosn´t lead to new creation of ssl certificate.

This is the easy way for me to create a test server, just a few clicks.
