How to fix "SSL Connection required, but not supported by server"?


Error Message:
SSL Connection required, but not supported by server


Reason: This error occurs when you are trying to add a server as SSL enabled but the server is not configured to use SSL.

Solution: To overcome this issue:

Solution 1:
  1. Configure SSL on the server. (help link: How to configure SSL on mysql server?)
  2. The certificates used for SSL configuration should be imported to AppManagerHome/working/Cert/apm.keystore.
  3. Add the monitor by enabling 'SSL' option in Add New Monitor page. If the monitor has already been added, update the 'SSL' option in Edit Monitor page.
Solution 2:
  1. Disable SSL checkbox in UI if you do not wish to enable SSL connection.


SSL connection is more secure than non-SSL connection.
