I'm running into a very weird scenario, have tried a lot of solutions and also tried searching for people having similar issues but couldn't find anything.
I have a webforms ASP.NET application for which the SSL certificate expired a couple of months ago, and we just received the renewed certificate. It was a new certificate instead of a renewal one, but issued to the same URL/SANs. It's also an internal certificate, not externally issued.
After installing the new SSL certificate in our production environment, an internal web service (asmx reference) call that we are making (to a java web service) is failing, complaining about no parameters being sent to the web service. This only happens if I browse through the SSL enabled version of the site, and only in production. The site with SSL works correctly in our dev/stage environments. Prod also works but only if I don't browse through HTTPS.
I cannot paste all the technical exception details, as it's a work related thing, but any help/guidance is appreciated.

For additional data, it is also not an IIS website on its own, it's hosted as an application under the Default Website, which is the one that has the SSL binding for the certificat.e
Has anyone experienced this?
