The following documentation comment has been logged on the website:
Page: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/11/ssl-tcp.html
Description:
In Section 18.9, the example showing how to create an SSL certificate:
openssl req -new -x509 -days 365 -nodes -text -out server.crt \
-keyout server.key -subj "/CN=dbhost.yourdomain.com"
Generating a RSA private key
..............................+++++
..............................................................................................+++++
writing new private key to 'server.key'
-----
name is expected to be in the format /type0=value0/type1=value1/type2=...
where characters may be escaped by \. This name is not in that format:
'/CN=dbhost.yourdomain.com'
problems making Certificate Request
A little research showed me I had to add a /C=<2 character country
name>/L=<location>/ST=<state>/O=<organization>/OU=<organization unit> to the
'/CN=dbhost.yourdomain.com' string. I also discovered that the /C=<country
name> had to be 2 characters.
