the https page returns this:

There is a problem with this website's security certificate.

The security certificate presented by this website was not issued by a trusted certificate authority.
The security certificate presented by this website was issued for a different website's address.

Security certificate problems may indicate an attempt to fool you or intercept any data you send to the server.

It means you're using a self-signed certificate or if you're using a trustworthy local CA for legitimate reasons the info wasn't added to the browsers list of trusted CA's yet.

It means the FQDN doesn't resolve to the same IP address like when it did before the migration.
