Thanks Norbert I intended to use the Plesk API to add the new subdomain and the new subdomain ghost.conf, then exec reconfig domain and reload Apache... ( the way we use to do manually in Plesk console) but it's quite heavy work... I found how to setup wild card w Plesk ... : http://kb.parallels.com/2239 (quite weird..) and it's running fine .... can access any sub-domain....
Thanks a lot for your feedback !
