checking your domain that's the expected (new) result ( [https://check-your-website.server-daten.de/?q=apollo.borealisai.com](https://check-your-website.server-daten.de/?q=apollo.borealisai.com) ).

Why? Your certificate is expired:

```nohighlight
CN=apolloapi.borealisai.de
	08.07.2019
	06.10.2019
1 days expired	
apollo.borealisai.com, apolloapi.borealisai.de, www.apollo.borealisai.com - 3 entries

```

so OCSP returns an `unauthorized` answer.

Renew your certificate.
