The problem was an expired pki certificate. When we first used ssl for pg we did not have our private CA set up. So we generated a self-signed certificate. That certificate expired this past July and I infer that while 8.1 did not care 8.4 evidently does. In any case, we generated a new key and had a certificate signing request signed by our CA. We installed both as server.key and server.crt in the pgsql/data directory with chmod 600 and chown postgres:postgres. Setting the postgresql.conf ssl option to on and restarting the server no longer causes any error. Than you all for the help. -- *** E-Mail is NOT a SECURE channel *** James B.
