In order to use HTTPS you need to prepare a PEM certificate, which contains all trusted CA certificates. For example, if you have 2 different .pem certificates (or .crt), perform the following action:
cat 1.pem >> out.pem
cat 2.pem >> out.pem
and set path to out.pem in "conenction.ssl_ca_cert" section of configuration file.
