TLS Handshake Error Connecting Server 2021.4 to User Managed Mongo with SSL

[smithct4mn]

I have been receiving the following error when trying to start the Alteryx server with an advanced connection string:

Mongo error: ""No suitable servers found: ''serverSelectionTimoutMS' expired" [TLS handshake failed]: generic server error"" code: <mongodb:13053>

Facts - 

• I can connect when I use a basic config file for Mongo and a connection string without ?ssl=True and Alteryx Server runs as expected
• Server version: 2021.4 on Windows 2019 server not FIPS enabled
• MongoDB version: 4.4 on RHEL 7 in FIPS enable mode
• Net config in Mongo (without the bullet points)
  • tls:
    • mode: requireTLS
    • certificateKeyFile: pem file
    • certificateKeyFilePassword: pass
    • CAFile: CA pem
    • FIPSMode: true

What I've tried - 

• All combinations I could think of for the mongo config, including using the deprecated SSL net keywords
• adjusting the certificate file to sometimes include the private key, sometimes not
• currently attempting to locate a version of the mongo certificate on the windows server, but that doesn't appear to work either
• I've read and followed the below articles
  • How to Create a User-Managed MongoDB Instance - Alteryx Community
  • How to Install SSL for User Managed Mongo 4.0 - Alteryx Community
  • Integration Issue with MongoDB Atlas - Alteryx Community
• I think the error has to be something with either the certificate, cypher suite, or protocol mismatch between the two entities

Let me know if there is anything else I can provide or any recommendations, thank you!!

Hello @smithct4mn 

Check for Mongod locks and remove them before trying to connect to MongoDB.
Make sure to perform indexing post removal of locks.

Turns out this ultimately had to do with the certificates and config file.  I will potentially be writing a post about this in case anyone has my weirdly specific use case.  Thank you for the reply!
