MySQL Error Message: TLS/SSL error: SSL is required, but the server does not support it i have activated sll because i need it in order to use my inverse proxy system scrapper for iptv any ideas? how to solve the error?

Your error has absolutely nothing to do with your update to newer boost lib.... did you just copy and paste the error and not bother reading or attempting to comprehend it? It tells you the problem, SSL IS REQUIRED it says... so you must enable SSL for your database... this is usually as simple as removing a semicolon from a comment in a config file somewhere if you are using xamp, if you were using uniserver you wouldn't even face this problem as it's enabled by default.

This error is common, but if you want to solve the problem, you can follow the tutorial from @Gesior.pl or from ERROR 502. It solved 100% without problem... only for Windows.

1. Gesior:
TFS 1.X+ - Server does not open tls/ssl problem (https://otland.net/threads/server-does-not-open-tls-ssl-problem.290112/#post-2775697)

2. Error 502:
TFS 1.X+ - Server does not open tls/ssl problem (https://otland.net/threads/server-does-not-open-tls-ssl-problem.290112/#post-2775711)

Choose either one and make the changes to your source and recompile. It should work well.

Those were the threads that I'm was looking for, sry dump question can't review thread since I'm at work now do they only work for windows?

Please stop recommending these "solutions" to people, as they are not solutions to the issue. You have people doing all these code changes to remove a security restriction that IS THERE FOR A REASON.... In most cases, the user needs to do nothing more than local a config file and remove a single character... the semicolon, like I mentioned before... this is not only 1000000x easier, it also requires no recompiling of the server, and also has the added benefit OF NOT REMOVING A SECURITY RESTRICTION.


I understand your intention is to be helpful, but, your helpfulness is encouraging people to make their databases vulnerable to outside attacks, please stop recommending security downgrades as solutions, thanks

Totally agree... Maybe recomend storing passwords in plain text? (not like tfs is handling them securely anyway)

the error appeared after removing vcpkg and installing few libraries for rme a whole mess so had to uodate code with that libs and with that begins the warning in console. about this . this is usually as simple as removing a semicolon from a comment i not that easy bcz i need that for my iptv scrapping system so it's not possible . but the issue was solved thanks

i have ssl in xampp i haven a scrapping iptv system working with it even with that i was receiving the error with ssl in tfs

In each thread about SSL error, you post it's super easy, but you never tell what to do step by step.
Can you finally post how to enable SSL in XAMPP on Windows?

Maybe then people will point to your post, not posts about C++ changes.

False. SSL is not something that can "only work with one thing at a time"... but I'm not about to argue with you in your support thread.. everything I have previously said stands as facts... the "new boost" has nothing to do with the "problem", the "solution" you used which was recommended to you was simply a "Security downgrade" and it is very easy to enable SSL...

It is also facts that if the stack you targeted already had SSL enabled you would have never had the error.

Anyways, we are just spamming thread at this point, so I'm unsubscribing, you should mark my answer as the solution as that's what it was, but w/e, I can already tell you won't.. and instead will likely point more people towards the security downgrade instead

i have it enable and configured im using in for a website domain / system and in spite of it i was receiving the rror so that's not the solution . applied yours editions / fixes in order to enable disable it . it's not as easy and codinablack try to make it looka as

well i have it enabled xd i have tested it in my network and outside it lol. why u primarly says that it's as easy a enable or disable a semicolon, as i have, then u blaming about fake ssl , . but the fact is that your soliution wasn't true at all because it was the way i had everything

 

[Gesior.pl]

well i have it enabled

It looks like you are talking about HTTP connection with SSL cert.
TFS connects to MySQL and you have to enable SSL in MySQL config.

I'm still waiting for answer how to do it, if it's just one ;.

My guess is the error appeared because the newer version of mariadb client library you installed doesn't allow to disable SSL anymore.
In the server code it was forced to keep ssl off but with newer library it demands to use it. If you have up to date library, you can simply enable it if it's not and that should fix the issue.
If you have mariadb installed from debian packages i.e you will find it's disabled by default.

Disabling your security is newer a solution.

he should add cert files to his mysql config like that:
[mysqld]
ssl-ca=C:/path/ca.pem
ssl-cert=C:/path/server-cert.pem
ssl-key=C:/path/server-key.pem

And those can be genereted by:

1. openssl x509 -req -in server-req.pem -days 3650 \ -CA ca.pem -CAkey ca-key.pem -set_serial 01 \ -out server-cert.pem
   
   
2. openssl genrsa 2048 > ca-key.pem certificate (self-signed)openssl req -new -x509 -nodes -days 3650 \ -key ca-key.pem -out ca.pem \ -subj "//CN=MySQL-CA"

Since Gesior intends on continuing to talk on this thread knowing I have him blocked (as I explicitly private messaged him to inform him AGAIN about this), rather than message me back, and clearly, again, with the purpose of trying to "call me out" or something... here you go.. only took ten seconds of googling it....



IF further work is required (sometimes, but not always), then the ONLY thing left to do at that point is to generate the certs with the two commands sorky showed above... so lets recap, delete a semicolon AND possibly, enter two terminal commands... or we can do a whole security downgrade and recompile... please... use common sense
