Hello,

We should remove that MOTD I guess. That was weeks ago, and things have
been running smoothly all the time since.

Hm... that really is strange. Can you just confirm two things?

- Are your problems limited to the Android app?
- Did you run the "Realm Check" for the student profile, and does it
show any issues?

> An important information is that our Staff profile is working fine.

Well the staff one uses a self-signed cert (no intermediates) while the
student one is from GoDaddy with two intermediate CAs. So any difference
would very probably be around certificate handling.

However, your profile looks just about perfect. It's just one root CA,
your server sends all the intermediates (without the root itself), and
all the cert properties look like they should.

Even Android with its limitations should be accepting those just fine.

Greetings,

Stefan Winter
