This not strictly true. You can use SSL on a server that also does
name-based virtual hosts. You're only allowed one SSL-enabled virtual
host per IP address, but your apache instance can serve as many non-SSL
virtual hosts on that IP address as you want.
I've done this many times with apache and mod_ssl. The basic idea is
Listen *:80
Listen *:443
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName nonssl.mydom.ain
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName other.nonssl.mydom.ain
</VirutalHost>
<VirtualHost *:443>
ServerName secure.mydom.ain
SSLEngine on
</VirtualHost>
As to the poster's original problem, he says that he gets an error
message, but since he didn't provide the message, it's hard to know what
went wrong.
