Are you using a real certificate or a test certificate. If it is a test
certificate you have to install a "Test Certificate Authority" which you
may have already done on your windows machines but not on your Mac.
Could that be it.?

Theory is when you know something, but it doesn't work.
Practice is when something works, but you don't know why.
Programmers combine theory and practice:
Nothing works and they don't know why.
