Freeradius and Android, TLS Internal Error

I have configured FreeRADIUS with EAP-TTLS/GTC and I am using valid certificates issued by Let's Encrypt. The certificate is valid for radius.foo.it and I have cert.pem, chain.pem, fullchain.pem, and privkey.pem. I have configured the tls section of the FreeRADIUS eap module as follows:
```
private_key_file = ${certdir}/privkey.pem
certificate_file = ${certdir}/fullchain.pem
ca_file = ${cadir}/fullchain.pem
auto_chain = no
```
When I try to connect to the access point with an older Android device, I have no issues, as it uses the system certificates. Using Linux and specifying the CA Authority as the Let's Encrypt root, I encounter no problems either. However, when using an iPad, I am prompted to accept the certificate (which is the correct one), but it claims it is untrusted despite the Let's Encrypt root being among the trusted CA. With newer versions of Android, you can choose between 3 options: do not verify, request certificate status, and require certificate status. The first two options work (by entering radius.foo.it as the domain), but for security reasons, I would like the third option to work as well. However, I get this error:
```

(13) } # authorize = ok

```
There is definitely something wrong with the configuration, but honestly, I can't figure out what. Any advice?

Thank you in advance.

P.S. I am 100% sure that the certificate is valid, which can be verified using openssl verify or by creating a virtual host with HTTPS using Apache.
