In all circumstances involving client-first bumping, or a bug in Squid.

Other circumstances depend on your definitinon of "correct". Squid
3.3+ will mimic certificates *including errors* delivered by servers.


Also, Squid does not generate client certificates. It generates server
certificates. I assume that is what you are talking about.

a) possibly the client trusts only one out of the two root certificates.

b) possibly the non-working certificate is not properly installed in
the client.

c) possibly the non-trusted root certificate is part of a chain which
the client is not able to locate all the pieces for (leading to 'a').

d) possibly the root certificate has key extensions or usage
restrictions prohibiting what Squid usage requires (leading to 'a').


You will need to get a content dump of the certificates emitted by
Squid and a working system to see what the difference(s) are.
