apache virtual hosts and different certificates

#1 (**permalink**) 01-16-2008, 08:38 AM

Good day everyone!

At the office, we are trying to test a secured web application. On our
Solaris we use IBM WebSphere. We use 2 different virtual hosts
(www.test1.office.com and www.test2.office.com) and would like to use
two different self signed certificates for those virtual hosts. But
every time we use test1 we get a warning that the common name of the
certificate is www.test2.office.com. Apparently it is not possible to
define two Keyfile directives in the httpd.conf .

Until now we have not been able to solve this issue. Has anybody an
idea or maybe a confirmation that it is not possible?

Our httpd.conf contains the following:

<VirtualHost www.test1.office.com:443>
SSLEnable
Keyfile /supersecretdirectory/test1.kdb
ServerName www.test1.office.com
...
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost www.test2.office.com:443>
SSLEnable
Keyfile /supersecretdirectory/test2.kdb
ServerName www.test2.office.com
...
</VirtualHost>

Good day,
