问题
Recently I acquired a new domain name to use with an existing Android application. I also bought SSL certificate from a trusted CA (Comodo). When I browse to the new domain with a web browser, everything works as expected - no errors about SSL certificate. Same with HttpUrlConnection, but for some reason Apaches HttpClient generates an SSLException:
javax.net.ssl.SSLException: hostname in certificate didn't match: my.new.domain != my.old.domain OR my.old.domain
What's more interesting, some of the devices that I tried with worked fine for about a week after the change, and stopped working after that. Other devices stopped working right away.
If I use the old domain name in client code, everything works correctly.
I'm using version 4.3.3 from here of the HttpClient for Android. I realize that converting to HttpUrlConnection would indeed solve my problem, but I'm interested in WHY this is happening - from where does the HttpClient pick up the old domain name? Is it some misconfiguration on the server, or does Apaches HttpClient have some sort of internal dns cache? Testing with a fresh emulator instance raised the same exception, so the problem is not related to caching.
My own investigations got stuck - all I could find was instructions for disabling hostname verification completely, or instructions for self-signed certificates.

That's probably because Apache HttpClient does not support SNI (server name indication), where you can have multiple certificates behind the same IP address. This means, that it does not send the target hostname inside the SSL handshake and thus the server has only the target IP address to decide which certificate it should use and just uses the default certificate for the IP - which is probably the wrong one.
