    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.
