and is there is a method for creating one certificate for one domain   example.com  and   *.example.com ?
Rich Weissler

Yes, example.com would be different from *.example.com.
To create the CSR for the wildcard cert, I'd use certreq, generating an INF file with the wildcard subject.
The wildcards I've used in the past, however, haven't seen able to bridge more than one level in the heirarchy.  (So, for example, *.example.com would be okay with host one.example.com, but I'd get a certificate error contacting host.one.example.com.)

we generate a request for *.example.com. and now when we use it have certificate error on example.com and all is ok with subdomains.   https://some.example.com works ok and https://example.com with certificate error.
