How to get more details about root cause of failed Database Mail SSL connection












0















I'm trying to send database mail over SSL/TLS-encrypted SMTP. It works when sending plain text email, but fails when I enable SSL/TLS.



The database mail log shows the following error message:



Date        6/02/2019 11:07:09 AM

Log     Database Mail (Database Mail Log)



Log ID      11

Process ID      9476

Mail Item ID    6

Message

The mail could not be sent to the recipients because of the mail server failure. (Sending Mail using Account 1 (2019-02-06T11:07:09). Exception Message: Cannot send mails to mail server. (The remote certificate is invalid according to the validation procedure.).

)


How can I find out more information about why SQL Server doesn't like the certificate?

          Restoring from pg_dump with foreign key constraints

          Image
          5 2 In restoring a database from a pg_dump , a number of errors are being generated and the whole table is subsequently being ignored. An example: ERROR: insert or update on table "channelproducts" violates foreign key constraint "fk_rails_dfaae373a5" DETAIL: Key (channel_id)=(1) is not present in table "channels". Interestingly enough, I've noted that all these instances are popping up because of the sequence of loading. channels is after channelproducts both alphabetically and in the file and thus I can understand why postgres complains about having to create a child without a parent. caveat: the foreign key is being generated automatically by rails 4.2: I could remove the problem at the source but that still does not really solve the problem... version: PostgreSQL
