Various tutorials state 3 files are needed to connect a MySQL client over SSL:
(for example in: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-configure-ssl-tls-for-mysql-on-ubuntu-18-04)
In the overview of my DigitalOcean managed database I’m able to download the CA certificate. Do I need the other two files as well?
My problem: on my Mac I’m able to connect over SSL using Table Plus. However on Windows I always get a SSL invalid error (in both Table Plus and MySQL Workbench)
What can I do to connect on Windows? Thanks!

I solved it. Here is what I did in Go 1.16:
certBytes, err := ioutil.ReadFile(“ca-certificate.crt”) if err != nil { log.Fatal(“unable to read in the cert file”, err) }
caCertPool := x509.NewCertPool() if ok := caCertPool.AppendCertsFromPEM(certBytes); !ok { log.Fatal(“failed-to-parse-sql-ca”, err) }
tlsConfig := &tls.Config{ RootCAs: caCertPool, }
if err := mysql.RegisterTLSConfig(“custom”, tlsConfig); err != nil { panic(err) }
db, err := sql.Open(“mysql”, username:password@tcp(host:port)/name?tls=custom&timeout=10s") if err != nil { return nil, err }
The reason I could not connect is that I set the wrong name inside mysql.RegisterTLS and the tls=… inside the connection string. It should be the SAME!
Same thing happened to me. I am using PostgreSql, and there should be a link to download the certificate in the overview page of the managed database.
Hello, I am having the same issue here, I need to connect via google jdbc and it’s requesting for client key and client certificate. Where do we get these from, please? The UI is not helpful at all.
