Asked by webmin
I’m trying to migrate to a managed database, as described in the last section of this tutorial. I apologize, but I’m a bit new to database migration.
When I enter this command:
pgloader mysql://DBUSER:DBPASS@localhost/DBNAME postgresql://doadmin:PASSWORD@stuff.db.ondigitalocean.com:25060/DBNAME?sslmode=require
I get this error:
Failed to connect to pgsql at "stuff.db.ondigitalocean.com" (port 25060) as user "doadmin": SSL verify error: 19 X509_V_ERR_SELF_SIGNED_CERT_IN_CHAIN
I’m a little lost here.

@webmin Try to add
--no-ssl-cert-verificationright afterpgloaderas shown below.Btw I had to wrap the server address of the PostgreSQL server into quotes on macOS. Otherwise I was not able to add the needed sslmode option at the end without triggering an error.

Hey there @webmin,
Have you tried running the following instead:
Note the removed
?sslmode=requirefrom the Postgres connection. The error implies it is trying to force an SSL connection but failing because the SSL certificate that is present is only a self-signed one and not a properly validated one.Let me know how it goes! - Matt.
