Ssl – New SSL Certificate Installation Errors on

apache-2.2godaddysslssl-certificateweb-server

We replaced an old SSL certificate with a new wildcard SSL certificate from GoDaddy. We switched out this certificate last week and have been receiving calls from customers trying to register ever since about the following error.

enter image description here

We cannot figure out what on earth is going on as we have tested this cert in IE 6,7,8, Chrome, & Firefox without receiving any errors, but we know there is a problem as we continue to get calls. For the record, we do have multiple SSL certificates installed on this box, but are using separate IP addresses to serve them up.

Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,

So, the DNS for classes.stcharleshealthcare.org is going to a server that is presenting the SSL cert for *.scmc.org. Check your DNS and/or your virtual host definitions in Apache.
