This might still cause a problem when you get the certificate working.

/etc/ssl/certs is a managed location (yes, I know, not strictly FHS compliant).
You need to put the certificate in /usr/local/share/ca-certificates (from
memory, please double-check with the ca-certificates documentation) and re-run
update-ca-certificates.
