I have an SSL enabled Redhat postgres box running. I’m trying to connect to it via remote client running ColdFusion 8, which is basically Java. I inserted root.crt into the Java cacerts storage and restarted the service. I connect via pgAdmin3 in ssl mode also, so my certificates are valid.
I’m connecting as follows:
url - jdbc:postgresql://x.x.x.x/main?ssl
driver class - org.postgresql.Driver
I can connect to the above server unencrypted. The only error message I get is “The root cause was that: org.postgresql.util.PSQLException: The connection attempt failed.” And log files are terribly sparse on the details.
My question is where does the handshake fault lie?
