Oh wow i used it because of the documentation:

Then i think so nobody else does the same mistake like i did the documentation should be updated with a warning or a tip to adress this issue.

Your code looks okay on the first sight.

Let's Encrypt has recently changed its issuer certificate. My suspicion is that your server still delivers the old certificate chain along with your certificate, so the issuer of your certificate does not match.

Please check the certificate in your browser. The issuer of your certificate must match the next certificate in your certificate chain. If you use Let's Encrypt, the issuer should be named "R3".

Yeah the software which uses the certificate isnt from me. I only generate certificate for it. I will open there also an ticket and will link this issue to it. Thank you @shred.

Sure. Btw i also checked the cert seems like its all ok with it and you have right: only the web server does something wrong...

from acme4j.

Ahhh... You are using the Let's Encrypt STAGING server. It does not provide certificates that are usable in a browser.

For production, you need to use the production server of Let's Encrypt.

In the example it is Session session = new Session("acme://letsencrypt.org");
