When using ghost-cli install in a headless manner, it will not register ssl cert for the admin domain.

[akerasi]

Summary

I'm trying to script an automated (ansible-based) install setup for my personal use. When doing so, even when admin-url is properly set to https://admin.mydomain.com and DNS is correctly configured (pointing mydomain.com and admin.mydomain.com to the IP), although it sets up https properly for the main domain, it neglects to do so for the admin domain.

Steps to Reproduce

ghost install --url 'https://mydomain.com' --admin-url 'https://admin.mydomain.com' --ip '0.0.0.0' --sslemail '[email protected]' --db --mysql --dbhost '172.16.1.23' --dbuser 'username' --dbpass 'pass' --dbname 'ghost' --no-setup-linux-user --no-prompt --enable

Linux user is set otherwise in my script, exact urls obviously replaced with placeholders (though I do use the 0.0.0.0 line).

Expected results: it installs and everything works

Actual results: no SSL for admin domain, meaning I can't set it up

Log file

All errors end with "Additional log info available in: [filepath]".

No error, so no logfile

Use the command cat [filepath] to read the log, then copy & paste the contents here:
