SSL encryption for mysql

The CMS Questions

Hello,

I’m switching on an azure cloud server with my kirby installation and facing an issue on connecting to a database. Currently the mysql server on azure requires an SSL-Cert to connect. Which works fine if I just use the default PDO class by php.

I didnt find any active discussion (only archieved ones) about passing an SSL-Cert to the database connection.

Is this somehow possible or do I need to force myself to turn of SSL on the azure setup?

Thanks in advance!

For all I know, this has never been implemented into the Database class because there was no demand for it.

It might be worthwhile to add a feature request on https://feedback.getkirby.com to see how much support this feature gets.

Of course, that doesn’t help you any now…

There is already a suggestion - gave it my upvote!

On the azure side I turned it off and now all works again.
Not 100% happy, but better than nothing!

Thanks a lot!
