SSL Certificate Chain Resolver
All operating systems contain a set of default trusted root certificates. But Certificate Authorities usually don't use their root certificate to sign customer certificates. They use so called intermediate certificates instead, because these can be rotated more frequently.
If not all intermediate certificates are installed on your server, some clients —mostly mobile browsers— will think you are on an insecure connection.
This tool can help you fix the Qualys SSL Server Test.

This package was inspired by cert-chain-resolver written by Jan Žák. Some text, mainly the background about the trust chain, was copied from the readme of his repo.
Background: the trust chain
All operating systems contain a set of default trusted root certificates. But Certificate Authorities usually don't use their root certificate to sign customer certificates. Instead of they use so called intermediate certificates, because they can be rotated more frequently.
A certificate can contain a special Authority Information Access extension (RFC-3280) with URL to issuer's certificate. Most browsers can use the AIA extension to download missing intermediate certificate to complete the certificate chain. This is the exact meaning of the Extra download message. But some clients, mostly mobile browsers, don't support this extension, so they report such certificate as untrusted.
This results in 'untrusted'-warnings like this, since the browser thinks you are on an insecure connection.
A server should always send a complete chain, which means concatenated all certificates from the certificate to the trusted root certificate (exclusive, in this order), to prevent such issues. So when installing a SSL certificate on a server you should install all intermediate certificates as well. You should be able to fetch intermediate certificates from the issuer and concat them together by yourself.
This tool helps you automatize that boring task by looping over certificate's AIA extension field.
