**Hi, we have resolved this issue.**

Finally, Mender needs the intermediate certificates of the CA authority within the individual certificate file in each service :  
_/production/keys-generated/certs/api-gateway/cert.crt_  
_/production/keys-generated/certs/storage-proxy/cert.crt_  
so these files would look exactly like  
_/production/keys-generated/certs/server.crt_

It is also advisable to download the root certificate files of your CA and include them in the server path in _/etc/ssl/certs/_ if they are not already there.

With this, clients can now connect perfectly to the mender server, and everything works fine.

Thanks for your help.
