What it means is that you cannot use MULTIPLE SSL virtual host
definitions per a single IP address (due to certificate binding per
IP). This does not mean you can't have multiple name-based HTTP
virtual hosts and a single HTTPS (SSL) virtual host.
Based on the OP's description, he's only trying to add a single SSL
name-based virtual host alongside multiple non-SSL name-based virtual
hosts. There is NO REASON this should not work, besides
misconfiguration.
