I have developed a RoR app. I would like to update it to handle more than one customer. For instance, one customer might use ame.requestsys.com and another would be slc.requestsys.com.
Currently on Heroku, I have requestsys.com and http://www.requestsys.com
I was told that I need to have *.requestsys.com –> is that correct?
If yes, why won’t Heroku let me add it?
Thanks
From the command line in the directory of your app do:
You can also do it from the heroku dashboard.
Then setup a CNAME in your DNS accordingly to point to yourapp.herokuapp.com
Try this guide for more info: https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/custom-domains#wildcard-domains.
Basically what you wanna do is a multitenant app, there are a couple railscasts on the subject:

But thats beyond the scope of the question.
