Your CA file must have been in a binary X 509 format instead of Base64 encoding  it needs to be a regular DER or PEM in order for it to be added successfully to the list of trusted CAs on your server   To proceed  do place your CA file inside your  usr share pki ca-trust-source anchors  directory  then run the command line below  you might need sudo privileges based on your settings      CentOS 7  Red Hat 7  Oracle Linux 7 update-ca-trust   Please note that all trust settings available in the  usr share pki ca-trust-source anchors  directory are interpreted with a lower priority compared to the ones placed under the  etc pki ca-trust source anchors  directory which may be in the extended BEGIN TRUSTED file format   For Ubuntu and Debian systems   usr local share ca-certificates  is the preferred directory for that purpose   As such  you need to place your CA file within the  usr local share ca-certificates  directory  then update the of trusted CAs by running  with sudo privileges where required  the command line below   update-ca-certificates
