So I installed a SSL certificate on a subdomain and everything worked fine for desktop Chrome and IE but when I use android chrome I get the following error… ERR_CERT_AUTHORITY_INVALID
Looking at the certificate it appears to only have only 1 certificate, the website’s, but not the root or intermediate. It is a class 1 certificate from StartSSL and this is my ssl virtual host config for my subdomain
SSLEngine on SSLProtocol all -SSLv2 SSLCipherSuite ALL:!ADH:!EXPORT:!SSLv2:RC4+RSA:+HIGH:+MEDIUM
SSLCertificateFile /etc/apache2/ssl/cloud/ssl.crt SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/apache2/ssl/cloud/private.key SSLCertificateChainFile /etc/apache2/ssl/sub.class1.server.ca.pem

Hello and welcome to Digitalocean
Here you go :
cd /etc/apache2/ssl/cloud/
wget https://www.startssl.com/certs/class1/sha2/pem/sub.class1.server.sha2.ca.pem
cat ssl.crt sub.class1.server.sha2.ca.pem > ssl_unified.crt
Now your new Apache2 Configuration :
SSLEngine on
# Please no SSLv3
SSLProtocol all -SSLv2 -SSLv3
SSLCipherSuite ALL:!ADH:!EXPORT:!SSLv2:RC4+RSA:+HIGH:+MEDIUM
SSLCertificateFile /etc/apache2/ssl/cloud/ssl_unified.crt
SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/apache2/ssl/cloud/private.key
Restart Apache2
PS I would recommend a better Cipher Suite:
SSLCipherSuite EECDH+AESGCM:EDH+AESGCM:AES256+EECDH:AES256+EDH
@Nathan485 could you reboot your Droplet and provide me your Domain Name ?!
PS: You done everything right as we “installed” the correct chain.
