Re: "Failed to connect to Postgres database"

Hi Adrian,

thanks to your kind explanation I discovered that I can connect to the db without explicitly calling the belonging cluster:

(base) postgres@pc:~$ psql -p5433 -d fabmnet_ca
psql (11.5 (Ubuntu 11.5-1.pgdg18.04+1))
Type "help" for help.

fabmnet_ca=# \conninfo
You are connected to database "fabmnet_ca" as user "postgres" via socket in "/var/run/postgresql" at port "5433".
fabmnet_ca=# \l
                              List of databases
    Name    |  Owner   | Encoding | Collate |  Ctype  |   Access privileges  
------------+----------+----------+---------+---------+-----------------------
 fabmnet_ca | postgres | UTF8     | C.UTF-8 | C.UTF-8 |
 postgres   | postgres | UTF8     | C.UTF-8 | C.UTF-8 |
 template0  | postgres | UTF8     | C.UTF-8 | C.UTF-8 | =c/postgres          +
            |          |          |         |         | postgres=CTc/postgres
 template1  | postgres | UTF8     | C.UTF-8 | C.UTF-8 | =c/postgres          +
            |          |          |         |         | postgres=CTc/postgres
(4 rows)

Now I have to understand how to "tranfer" this ssh-capability to connect with the fabmnet_ca db of cluster fabmnet without explicitly call the cluster to the fabric-ca-server :

This is what I set in fabric-ca-server-config.yaml :

#db:
#  type: sqlite3
#  datasource: fabric-ca-server.db
#  tls:
#      enabled: false
#      certfiles:
#      client:
#        certfile:
#        keyfile:


db:
  type: postgres
  datasource: host=localhost port=5433 user=postgres password=pwd dbname=fabmnet_ca sslmode=verify-full
  tls:
      enabled: false
      certfiles:
      client:
        certfile:
        keyfile:

Initializing the fabric-ca-server gives "Failed to connect to Postgres database" and in postgresql-11-fabmnet.log : sslv3 alert bad certificate

Why it says "sslv3 alert bad certificate" if it's exactly the same certificate used when connecting to the same database with ssl in postgres environment as shown above?

You might want to take a look at:

First it is SSL.
Second password and SSL are two different things. This is covered in the
auth file pg_hba.conf:

https://www.postgresql.org/docs/11/auth-pg-hba-conf.html

What you are seeing below is dependent on whether you connect using a
host(-h localhost) or a socket(no -h). That behavior is in turn
determined by the settings in pg_hba.conf.

Also to help down the road when you are setting up the fabric-ca server
you need to remember you are now running two Postgres servers:

Ver Cluster Port Status Owner    Data directory                 Log file
11  fabmnet 5433 online postgres /var/lib/postgresql/11/fabmnet
/var/log/postgresql/postgresql-11-fabmnet.log
11  main    5432 online postgres /var/lib/postgresql/11/main
/var/log/postgresql/postgresql-11-main.log

The most important part is that the fabric server needs to connect to
the one using port 5433.  FYI, this also means that it is not necesssary
to use the --cluster option to psql. Just set the appropriate port -p
5432 for maon and -p 5433 for fabmnet.

This failed because you did not specify a database or username, so by
default psql used the system user(postgres) as the database name and the
user name. I'm guesing you do not have a password set up for the
postgres user yet. Pretty sure if you left off the -h localhost you
would have connected as Ubuntu sets up trust authentication for postgres
user on local socket.
