The cert in use is for *.apache.org and does not have a Subject Alternate Name for just apache.org without a subdomain.

This leaves 2 primary course of actions:

- request the vendor we got our cert from (Symantec) add the SAN and reissue. They sometimes will do so. - buy and install a cert for apache.org for the website without www. and redir to the www.apache.org website

Other courses of action:

- remove the DNS entry for A/CNAME for apache.org so it doesn't resolve to anything - ignore the issue (it's been reported a few times already and likely won't stop)

    I am not sure who should be contacted, but https://apache.org

    the *.apache.org <http://apache.org> SSL Certificate and one gets

    I think it needs to be corrected...
