How did you verify that the certificates are working? By using psql and seeing "SSL connection"? Is it possible that your program is linked against an old version of libpq? I can reproduce the above error with an otherwise working 8.0.3 setup if I link the program against a 7.4.8 libpq. If your system has ldd, which libpq does it show your program linked against? If the certificates work with psql, which libpq does ldd show psql linked against? -- Michael Fuhr ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 6: explain analyze is your friend
