Zabbix 7.2.3 - Connection to database 'zabbix' failed

[natzcat]

Hey guys,

I have tried twice to install and get this working but I cant get past the following;
[Z3001] connection to database 'zabbix' failed: [2026] TLS/SSL error: SSL is required, but the server does not support it
database is down: reconnecting in 10 seconds

This was on the back of seeing Zabbix server is running 'no' under system information.

Thanks

Hey Donkey,
Its in the /var/log/zabbix/zabbix_server.log log

Uploaded a screenshot of it too.

Thanks for your help

What DB are you using? Postgres? MySQL? Maria?

in /etc/zabbix/zabbix_server.conf, are any of these values set, and if so, to what?

DBTLSConnect=
DBTLSCAFile=
DBTLSCipher=

Similarly, in /etc/zabbix/web/zabbix.conf.php

$DB['ENCRYPTION']               =
$DB['KEY_FILE']                 =
$DB['CERT_FILE']                =
$DB['CA_FILE']                  =
$DB['VERIFY_HOST']              =
$DB['CIPHER_LIST']              = ​

Your database is telling Zabbix it doesn't support encryption, but you've configured (supposedly) Zabbix to use and enforce encryption. The two remedies are: enable TLS security on the DB or remove Zabbix's DB encyrption config.

5 Secure connection to the database

Hi MRedbourne,

NEWBIE here so its very much basic setup as per zabbix setup doco.

Zabbix is on CENTOS 10 with Maria and MySQL.
DBTLSConnect=
DBTLSCAFile=
DBTLSCipher=


$DB['ENCRYPTION'] = false;
$DB['KEY_FILE'] = ' ';
$DB['CERT_FILE'] = ' ';
$DB['CA_FILE'] = ' ';
$DB['VERIFY_HOST'] = false;
$DB['CIPHER_LIST'] = ' ';

any help/suggestions greatly appreciated.

Thanks

I encountered the same error message as you. After removing MariaDB and using MySQL instead, I was able to execute it normally
