Wildcard subdomains show default page

kenneth-vkd

Basic Pleskian
Hi
In order for one of our customers to be able to easily create sites in subdomains we created a subdomain called *.domain.tld as per the description in plesk "Enter * to create a wildcard subdomain."
As we do not currently have the DNS pointed for the domain we are using a preview domain, so that it will be at *.domain.tld.192-168-111-222.serverhost.tld
When clicking the preview button inside plesk it goes to this url: _.domain.tld.192-168-111-222.serverhost.tld
This displays the correct php application.
But if I go to lets say mycustomsite.domain.tld.192-168-111-222.serverhost.tld it shows the plesk domain default page.
I have verified the the DNS of the preview domain points to the IP-address of the plesk webserver.

Why is this not working?
