On your test install, set the SSL to false in your configure.php file. After you are 150% satisified with the new store. you shutdown the live site for maint. take a DB backup of it. Restore this DB to your new install DB - re-run the ZC-install and upgraade the DB only to capture transactions & new users since you began this test install. relocate these files to location of your current live install and then edit the configure.php to SSL =true and there should be no reuirement to re-install the cert as it is adajacent to the cart or only used by the cart

Hi Kobra,

You told me to set the SSL to false in my configure.php file on my test install and set the SSL back to true again after making the test install live. I only realized this after doing a real upgrade. That means the SSL was set to true during the real upgrade. Will my SSL still work now?
