I'm getting this kind of errors when trying to use Aleph HTTP client for HTTPS. Anyone know what's going on?

Okay, I guess my JVM cacerts is outdated and I should update Java. Or something.

that’s one way

I’m pretty sure you can pass it a custom netty object if you really want to

Well, upgrading Java made Let's Encrypt certs work, but actually I need to connect to a site with a StartSSL cert, so I passed in a SSL context that uses the StartSSL CA cert

(I was first testing with https://httpbin.org/ which uses Let's Encrypt)
