Hi
I have some problems with using virtual hosts and ssl. For handling a request "GET http://mysite.com/" I've created virtual hosts. For this I’ve done following steps:
In httpd.conf I added “Include conf/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf”.
In httpd-vhosts.conf I added
NameVirtualHost *:80
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot “C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/htdocs/mysite.com”
ServerName mysite.com
ErrorLog “log/mysite-error.log”
CustomLog “log/mysite-access.log”
<Directory "C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/htdocs/mysite.com ">
AllowOverride All
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
For testing this functionality I use telnet. In command line I run telnet 192.168.1.1 80. And then enter GET http://mysite.com/. Then I can see content of index.html (<html><body><h1> It works!</h1></body></html>). Test’s passed. But I didn’t have access to mysite.com via internet explorer and also for next case. Why?
Then I have to handle request CONNECT sslsite.net:443. For this I’ve created ssl. In httpd.conf I added “Include conf/extra/httpd-ssl.conf” and “LoadModule ssl_module modules/mod_ssl.so”.
In httpd-sll.conf I changed
<VirtualHost *:443>
DocumentRoot “C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/htdocs/sslsite.net”
ServerName sslsite.net
ErrorLog “log/sslsite-error.log”
TransferLog “log/sslsite-access.log”
SSLEngine On
SSLCertificateFile “C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/bin/ca.crt”
SSLCertificateKeyFile “C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/bin/ca.key”
</VirtualHost>
For testing this functionality I use openssl.exe. Run s_client –connect 192.168.1.1:443 –state –debug and after I wrote request GET https://sslsite.net. AS I can see it works. But I have request CONNECT with sslsite.net (not ip address). So I don’t know what I need to change in configuration to be able to write s_client –connect sslsite.net:443 –state –debug(now in this case there is gethostbyname failure). If I wrote <VirtualHost sslsite.net:443> there is [error] Couldn’t resolve host name sslsite.net -- ignoring
I’m looking forward to reply
Thanks,
Lizzy |

This is a Frequently Asked Question in the Apache docs.
It is becoming a Frequently-asked-question here too. See these previous Apache Lounge posts:-tom- |

Thanks for quick reply
I’ll be much appreciated if you clarify me some points. If we couldn’t use NameBased VirtualHosting to identify ssl virtual host, does it mean that request CONNECT domen.net:443 is impossible?
Unfortunately I've not found answer to my question about why i couldn't have access via browser  If I enter https://192.168.1.1 and http://192.168.1.1, needed html-page is loaded. But if I enter it https://sslsite.net or http://mysite.com it couldn’t display webpage.
Sorry for repeated questions
