Sometimes this section

prevents your real SSL certificate from being used. If this is the case either comment VirtualHost default or move the SSLCertificate* attributes to it, ie.

  SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/ssl/mydomain_com.key
  SSLCertificateFile /etc/ssl/mydomain_com.crt
  SSLCertificateChainFile /etc/ssl/mydomain_com.ca-bundle

Make sure you restart apache after that.
