Hi everybody!
We have the following setup:
- running Thingworx Instance with MS SQL DB at Version 8.4
- running Influx DB at Version 1.7.8 -> listening on http with port 8086
- Both running on the same machine e.g. hostname: mythingworx.local
- Influx added as successfully as Persistance Provider in Thingworx -> everything fine
What we want:
- Secure connection between Thingworx and InfluxDB with HTTPS
Problem:
- InfluxDB runs fine on HTTPS at Port 8086
- We have corporate generated SSL certifcates
- We can execute Queries via HTTPS with postman
- We changed the url to Influx in Thingworx to https
- but: Thingworx only says: unable to update persistance provider
- Thingworx is no longer able to connect to InfluxDB
Logoutput in Application Log:
[message: Import Failed: Unable to update PersistenceProvider: Unable to connect to the PersistenceProvider: InfluxDB]
Unable to process import: Unable to update PersistenceProvider: Unable to connect to the PersistenceProvider: InfluxDB
*** Unable to connect to the PersistenceProvider: InfluxDB ***.
We can't find any helpful logfiles. We also tried to import the complete certificate Trustchain Java /lib/security/cacerts file.
Do somebody of you have an idea for us? We even can't find any documentation about Thingworx and Influx via SSL.
Thanks in advance.
Best,
Benjamin
