Is it possible to have more than one SSL certificate at a time on a site?

I have a domain that already has a certificat installed for the non-canonical domain http://customerdomainname.com and I need to install a different one for the http://www.customerdomainname.com.

I have tried it. But, when I try to go to the www url I still get the message that it's not the correct certificate.

Thanks,
Paul

Yes, but you'll need to make seperate VirtualHost sections for each of customerdomainname.com and www.customerdomainname.com to do this. Contact support if you need help doing this (it will vary per panel).

Hmmm. I'm not sure what you mean by "VirtualHost sections" but, I don't need the cert on the non-canonical application. So, I could remove the one (if I knew how) and then install the new one with the correct name WWW.customerdomain......

I guess now the question changes to how do I remove the certs that I have installed.

Hey fourbit, just to close this out, this was handled yesterday via a ticket, correct?

Yes, this issue was resolved by the support team. I was going to post yesterday but, things got busy around here. We had a couple of big thunder storms and a tornado watch.

But, to sum it up. Sadique explained step by step what to do. Of course he/she (I'm sorry to say that I don't know the gender) would have done it all for me. But, I am trying to learn these things too. And it wasn't a time-critical problem. (I'm slow) :D

I went to SSL/TSL | Delete a SSL Host

I deleted the host for the certificate in question. Then installed the new certificate for the www.

Piece of cake. Well, with help and handholding from Support. :D I was a little jumpy about "deleting a HOST". Sounded a bit ominous. But, all went well.

We did have a little problem in that Apache didn't want to Restart. But Sadique found that issue and corrected it. Sadique also explained to me how he/she found the problem.

Sadique was very helpful and curteous. I wasn't surprised. I have never been disappointed with the support from this support team. Whoever screened and hired these great people should be commended.

One question that still needles me a bit is wether or not I can have both certs on the site at the same time? Maybe I'll test that out a bit on a different site with some freessl certs.

Thank you again Sadique, Charles and Tom.
