Geotrust indicates, that the problem possibly comes from the intermediate certificate being signed with SHA-1. Could this be the "problem", even though the server is set up to not allow unsecure ciphers? Best regards Jens Lærkedal

Have now replaced the certificate with one of same type, but using a more recent intermediate. This has made the error go away, but I do not know, if the problem came from the original intermediate using SHA-1, or if there was a problem with the original root certificate. Might as well close the case, as the problem can no longer be reproduced by now. Best regards Jens Lærkedal.
