Description of problem:
I am doing name-based virtual hosting for a number of ssl sites and it appears that only the first instance of the SSLCertificateFile directive is being used.

For instance (in /etc/httpd/conf.d/ssl.conf):

...
NameVirtualHost *:443

<VirtualHost *:443>
    ...
    ServerName ssl.server1.tld:443
    ...
    SSLCertificateFile /path/to/server1.crt
    SSLCertificateKeyFile /path/to/server1.key
    ...
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *:443>
    ...
    ServerName ssl.server2.tld:443
    ...
    SSLCertificateFile /path/to/server2.crt
    SSLCertificateKeyFile /path/to/server2.key
    ...
</VirtualHost>

Browsing to either site brings up the certificate for server1 and never the certificate for server2.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
mod_ssl-2.0.52-12.1

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. install httpd & mod_ssl
2. create certificate/key pairs for each virtual host (and remove the password)
3. configure apache to do name based virtual hosting and use different cert/key pairs for each host
  

Actual Results:  Only the first listed certificate is used.

Expected Results:  The certificate configured for each individual virtual host should be used.

Thanks for contacting us.

Unfortunately, it's not possible to use name-based vhosting with SSL; please see:
