I'm trying to setup two virtual hosts for www.example.com, one for http and one for ssl (both are reverse proxies).

Binding {
        BindingID = example
        Port = 80
        Interface = 2.2.2.2.2
}

Binding {
        BindingID = examplessl
        Port = 443
        Interface = 2.2.2.2.2
        SSLcertFile = example.pem
}

VirtualHost {
        RequiredBinding = example
        Hostname = www.example.com
        ReverseProxy .* http://1.1.1.1/
        WebsiteRoot = /var/www/example
        AccessLogfile = /var/log/hiawatha/example/access.log
        ErrorLogfile = /var/log/hiawatha/example/error.log
} 

VirtualHost {
        RequiredBinding = examplessl
        Hostname = www.example.com
        SSLcertFile = example.pem
        RequireSSL = yes
        ReverseProxy .* https://1.1.1.1/
        WebsiteRoot = /var/www/example
        AccessLogfile = /var/log/hiawatha/example/example-ssl.log
        ErrorLogfile = /var/log/hiawatha/example/error.log
}

When a vistor hits www.example.com through SSL, Hiawatha should talk to the backend (1.1.1.1) though SSL. When the vistitor uses http, Hiawatha should talk HTTP with the backend as well.

When I'm trying the configuration above, Hiawatha shows the following error:

$ sudo /etc/init.d/hiawatha restart
Stopping webserver: Hiawatha
Warning: duplicate hostname 'www.example.com' found on line 115 in '/etc/hiawatha/hiawatha.conf'.
Starting webserver: Hiawatha

I've already tried it with a different hostname, eg. "example-ssl". But that doesn't work either (Hiawatha will start without any error messages but won't serve the website correctly -> serves default "Installation successful" page)

Hiawatha version: 9.6
Operating System: Debian 6.0.9

Any hints that would lead me to a solution for this problem?

If your configuration works for you, you can ignore the warning. It's just a warning, not a fatal error.

Indeed, I just had to kill "RequireSSL = yes". Thanks!
