Could not verify identity of the remote server

Description

I start using Riot on Android for a while and after sometime the app starts giving me the error in the title (with details in the attachment). No other device or account has this issue. And it normally runs fine on my Android device from the start but I do not know at what point it starts to decide the throw this error. When I get this error, none of other apps or devices has problem with the identity of the server

Does Riot on Android need to use any other process to access the internet? I have firewall installed on this device therefor only necessary apps are allowed to use the internet. However like I said Riot works fine for couple days so it cant be an internet issue and disabling the firewall did not seem to solve the issue.

I can use any of the web services on that server that is using the same LE certs for 443 in Chromium or other apps, so it does not seem to be like a Cert issue to me.

Also the fingerprint shown in the screenshot matches my server's finger print.

Steps to reproduce

• Install it on a home server

• Get a free dns pointing to you home ip

• Get LE certs

• Install Matrix, point to use the LE certs

• Forward the ports

• Add an account

• Install Riot on Android

• Start testing it

Here is some log from android, does not seem to be useful

Ok thanks. After thinking about this issue for a while, I put the fullchain.pem instead of chain.pem in the yaml file, and for now I am not facing the issue, in case someone else ends up hitting this issue.
