Apache cannot detect the proper use of domain-based multi-homing with wildcard certificates, which allows multiple proxy services to share the same SSL port. If you create reverse proxy services that are configured for domain-based multi-homing with SSL, Apache considers this a possible port conflict and logs it as a warning in the error.log file.
The error messages look similar to the following:
[<time and date stamp>] [warn] Init: SSL server IP/port conflict: dbmhnsnetid.dsm.cit.novell.com:443 (C:/Program Files/Novell/apache/conf/vhosts.d/dbmhNS-NetID.conf:18) vs. magwin1430external.dsm.cit.novell.com:443 (C:/Program Files/Novell/apache/conf/vhosts.d/magMaster.conf:18) [<time and date stamp>] [warn] Init: SSL server IP/port conflict: magdbmheguide.dsm.cit.novell.com:443 (C:/Program Files/Novell/apache/conf/vhosts.d/dbmhMagEguide.conf:18) vs. magwin1430external.dsm.cit.novell.com:443 (C:/Program Files/Novell/apache/conf/vhosts.d/magMaster.conf:18)
Ignore these errors because Access Gateway Service knows how to handle the traffic and sends the packets to the correct proxy service. For more information about Apache log files, see “Log Files”.
