Hi,  
The upstream app has shared the ssl in .CER format, i have changed the file to .Pem format and placed it on server, Please suggest how can i enable the certificate for the services. As per the Kong documentation i have just added the certificate path to the property “lua\_ssl\_trusted\_certificate” in config file. Please suggest the approach to enable the certificate for the service. let me know if any other configurations are missing.

when TLS Verify is set to off- it works.  
when TLS Verify is set to on- it doesn’t work.  
Note:- ssl is shared without privatekey
