This problem is associated with the DNS mapping in the server.
Key Takeaway: When the issue relates to connecting to the server using a name, then it is a DNS resolution problem. The DNS database is indexed by name, therefore, each domain must have a name. As you add domains to the hierarchy, the name of the parent domain is appended to its child domain, called a sub domain. Consequently, a domain's name identifies its position in the hierarchy.
