I have mariadb set up on my ubunutu 18.04 lts system.
I had a backup script working without a problem, but somewhere in updates it stopped working, but I didn't notice at first, because who watches backups when they've worked reliably for ages.
But now I've noticed that backups have stopped working, and when I try to emulate the start of the backup command I get the error:
ERROR 2026 (HY000): SSL connection error: self signed certificate in certificate chain
using the command I've used without problem previously, suddenly gives an error.
$ mysql -u root -p################################ -N -e 'show databases' ERROR 2026 (HY000): SSL connection error: self signed certificate in certificate chain` Even if I do a simply login I get the same error
$ mysql -u root -p Enter password: ERROR 2026 (HY000): SSL connection error: self signed certificate in certificate chain For a few months ago I didn't have any issues with running mysql on the server via command line. Somewhere updates must have changed this, but I don't know what changed it.
I really can't execute any meaningful command with mysql without it balking about the certificate chain.
My version:
$ mysql -V mysql Ver 15.1 Distrib 10.3.22-MariaDB, for debian-linux-gnu (x86_64) using readline 5.2 When I connect from my work machine to the server with the certificate that's installed I have no issues connecting to the database. So the certificate works for the mysql server. It seems to be a pure command line mysql issue.
I've updated everything in apt-get and apt, there are 0 updates available.

Is this something that I can solve with a mysql flag? Or is this something I need to solve in an openSSL settings?
I've tried googling, but the closest to the symptoms I could find was a question from 2012.
