How to fix connection error seen when running Synthea ETL tool but not seen running DQD?


I can run DQD using the connection parameters shown below but I get an SSL error if I try to use connect() and I get the same error trying to use the synthea etl tool.

Full script is below.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Connection Parameters

dbms <- "sql server"
user <- "synthea_user" 
password <- "sneeker" 
server <- "localhost" 
port <- "1433"
pathToDriver <- pathToDriver
extraSettings <- ";databaseName=master;integratedSecurity=true;encrypt=false"

Error

Error in rJava::.jcall(jdbcDriver, "Ljava/sql/Connection;", "connect",  : 
  com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerException: The driver could not establish a secure connection to SQL Server by using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption.

Solution

  • This are the connection settings that needed to be used to get this to work.

    extraSettings <- ";databaseName=synthea_etl;integratedSecurity=false;encrypt=false;trustServerCertificate=true;sslProtocol=TLSv1"
    

    This is the full script.

    # run the following once
