Trying to set up SSL to work on mydomain.com. Following Heroku documentation I have managed get the SSL working on https://secure.mydomain.com. However actual endpoint created by heroku when i added the SSL is still saying 

**Heroku | No such app**

There is no app configured at that hostname.
Perhaps the app owner has renamed it, or you mistyped the URL.

I am a little confused as to how i get the tokyo-2121.herokussl.com to point to my actual application on Heroku.

emet:myapp vezu$ heroku certs
Endpoint                  Common Name(s)         Expires                   Trusted
------------------------  ---------------------  ------------------------  -------
tokyo-2121.herokussl.com  secure.mydomain.com  2013-09-09 12:28:05 CEST     True

Then 

emet:myapp vezu$ heroku certs:info
Fetching information on SSL endpoint tokyo-2121.herokussl.com... done
Certificate details:
    subject: /serialNumber=htilpsjjgrrlhyVZ8rbeandz78555bgpWx/FDEVd/OU=GT166968518/OU=See www.rapidssl.com/resources/cps (c)12/OU=Domain Control Validated - RapidSSL(R)/CN=secure.mydomain.com
    start date: 2012-09-06 12:38:54 CEST
    expire date: 2013-09-09 12:28:05 CEST
    common name(s): secure.mydomain.com
    issuer: /serialNumber=htilpsjjgrrlhyVZ8rbeandz78555bgpWx/FDEVd/OU=GT166968518/OU=See www.rapidssl.com/resources/cps (c)12/OU=Domain Control Validated - RapidSSL(R)/CN=secure.mydomain.com
    SSL certificate is verified by a root authority.

I assume that this means i have installed the SSL correctly. My dnsimple config looks like this 

Type    Name                     TTL          Points to 
ALIAS   mydomain.com             3600         proxy.herokuapp.com   
CNAME   secure.mydomain.com  600          tokyo-2121.herokussl.com  
CNAME   www.mydomain.com     3600         proxy.herokuapp.com   
MX          mydomain.com             600          mx00.1and1.co.uk (P:10)   
MX          mydomain.com             600          mx01.1and1.co.uk (P:20)

How to get the endpoint tokyo-2121.herokussl.com to link to my app? Should i be adding it anywhere on my app?

    It sounds like you’ve configured the SSL endpoint correctly but not told Heroku what domain you will be using. This error message is actually coming from within Heroku meaning that when typing the hostname you’re being directed to the correct place but Heroku doesn’t recognise the hostname and therefore cannot determine which site to serve.

    You need to take a look at the heroku domains command.

    You can list the domains using:

    heroku domains

    If the domain does not appear within the list then you will need to add it. You can do this using:

    heroku domains:add secure.mydomain.com

    This will add the domain to your Heroku app so that the Heroku servers serve your site for any requests to that host name.
