Aha, the classic 'trusted CA' trick! Bet the developers forgot to renew the certificate or installed the wrong root CA. Time to get the IT team on speed dial!

I bet the developers are using the same certificate for both the website and the applications, but the applications are on a different server. Gotta love that cross-platform compatibility!

Maybe the developers accidentally signed the applications with the wrong certificate. It's like trying to open a locked door with the wrong key - just ain't gonna work, my friend.

They should double-check and make sure they are using the correct certificate for signing.

Ahh, the old 'signing process keeps failing' conundrum. I'm guessing the private key is either corrupted or not properly synced across the applications. Better call the IT helpdesk, they love this kind of thing!

Could it be that the applications are not configured to trust the CA?

Hmm, sounds like a classic case of a certificate mismatch. I bet the developers forgot to configure the correct certificate on the applications. Time to double-check those settings!

Maybe there's a mismatch between the certificate used for signing and the one configured on the applications.
