It is not at all clear how the ssl.conf and the vhosts.conf files are related. The same site is entered in https-ssl.conf and in httpd-vhosts.conf but uner different ports *:80 and :*:443. What is rather annoying is that in the ssl-conf file there is a dummy setup but it does not indicate that this is what you have to change - rather than the vhosts file. Nothing like having the blind leading the blind. ;-) I solved my immediate problem by modifying the httpd-ssl.conf file; up to then I understood that the the configuration for vhosts depended on the port where vhosts was pointing. Now, what is not clear is whether I need to add more entries in the httpd-ssl.conf file for the other sites; I would assume yes. Thanks for responding.
