Creating a data source to OSIsoft PI database throws the error,
"SSL connect failed in tcp_connect()".
Issue/Introduction
Creating a data source to OSIsoft PI database throws the error, "SSL connect failed in tcp_connect()".
Resolution
In the JDBC connection URL for an OSIsoft PI database, the hostname of the machine that initiates the connection must be used. (Other JDBC connection URLs typically use the database name.)
The following URL is an example for such an OSIsoft PI database connection. Most of the online references indicate this as localhost, i.e., the machine that is establishing the connection, followed by the database name.
