I guess you are missing out all the SSL directives, esp. the certificate... Anyway, your setup is not really working in a strict SSL sense. What is happening is that the SSL session is established using the cert from the first VH. Once the SSL channel is open, apache can then decrypt the request and so see the Host header. Then it can assign the request to the correct VH so name-based SSL "seems" to work.

The problem is that the cert is always coming from the first VH, so request for the site contained in the 2nd VH will produce a browser warning that the site domain name doesn't match the cert. Thus, you don't have authentication, even though you have encryption. Maybe you don't care about authentication? Maybe that's OK if you have a development set up or a limited use for SSL btu for serious commercial SSL, authentication is just as important as encryption...

Could be a dozen things... your snippet is too terse to tell what you've done wrong (could even be the HTML source). If you post the real URL, we can have a look..
