what does this mean, " Web service is turned off. An administrator can turn it on using the Server application?"

I'm attempting to connect to a website I've being using for 5 years plus. Now Firefox reports that the certificate is improper, and the message, " Web service is turned off. An administrator can turn it on using the Server application.", is given.

I don't know what to do with this information. Web service is on for other websites. What is the "server application?" How can I take control and connect? I am the administrator.

I cannot replicate on another browser. In fact, I now cannot replicate on my Firefox browser. I can only assume that the certificate problem was taken care of by the website involved. But in case this problem returns, I wonder what server application I am to use in order to turn my (?) web service on?

Cryptic, unexplained error messages are a pet peeve of mine. It seems that Microsoft does not have a lock on such frustrating messages.
