A Flat Earther are we?

So, my webhost decides to migrate my domain to a newer server. Although I am the technical contact, I was not a recipient of the emails from the last couple of days informing us of the move. I had no idea until this morning when a client called because the website was 'down'.
Apparently, the SSL cert is unhappy with the migration so no https traffic is getting through!  I started a support ticket with them well over two hours ago and am still waiting on a reply. 
I think the SSL cert has to be registered/installed on the server they moved us to...and they just forgot about it...but I'm not sure...waiting on Marc's article to understand it better.

My still weak understanding of this is that the cert is registered to either the user or the machine. So you can't just move the site and its certs to another machine, you have to actually re-register them.
Do you have an export of the cert (a .pfx file)? If so, you should be able to add the cert to the Trusted Authority section. That assumes you can remote into the machine with admin privs.

If the certificate was marked "exportable" when it was installed on machine A, you should be able to export it as a .pfx (onto a flash drive for instance). You can also set a password at the same time. Then you should be able to run the .pfx on machine B and install it there (using the password).
I have done this a few times and it works for me.

It's hosted, so I am dependent on them adding the cert to the new server. If I remember correctly (it's been two years) to get it working originally, I had to provide them with a zip file containing the required certs. I still have it if they need it again. Sadly, it's been 5 hours in the queue waiting for a tech to reply...It can wait until tomorrow. 
Edit: (12 hours later) Wow, my webhost is just awesome! I reported the problem through a support ticket over 20 hours ago and still have no response, and my site still fails using https!  I've just tried to call them, but they're west coast US and aren't answering the phones for another hour and a half.

Given the rotation of the earth, the orbit of the earth around the sun, the sun around the galaxy, the galaxy as it zooms toward the Great Attractor, I've always wondered how ghosts (and other spirits) manage to stay in the vicinity.  When you add it all together, we're moving pretty darn fast!

Relative to the surface of the Earth, we're hardly moving at all.

Obviously because they're made of matter, just more refined.

I do imagine the Earth travelling through space leaving a trail of dimsembodied souls in its wake.

This is why the concept of "we travelled through time but not space" and "we have to accelerate up to eighty-eight miles per hour" make no sense in reality.

It's a good thing that crimes of Lèse-majesté are rarely (if ever) prosecuted in The United Kingdom, or your next visit to London would end with a very short tour of the Tower! 
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.
