Answer 1

If you have your new instance of Jenkins which is a copy of your old Jenkins instance. Copy the cacerts which will be located at ..\Jenkins\jre\lib\security to the jre\secrets folder of your existing new Jenkins instance.

In jenkins.xml change the arguments accordingly, e.g.:

    -Xrs 
    -Xmx256m 
    -Dhudson.lifecycle=hudson.lifecycle.WindowsServiceLifecycle 
    -jar "%BASE%\jenkins.war" 
    --httpPort=-1 
    --httpsPort=8443 
    --httpsKeyStore="%BASE%\secrets\keystore" 
    --httpsKeyStorePassword=your.password.here
