Robomongo: Unable to connect after MacOS Catalina Update

Created on 25 Feb 2020  路  4Comments  路  Source: Studio3T/robomongo

After upgrading to MacOS Catalina the configured connections to AWS DocumentDB broke as the CA was been revoked. See image below

After adding the certificate to the key chain and trusting it manually it seems that I can connect from the command line and use mongoexport mongoimport correctly that makes me think that something is not right with Robo3t. May be no access to key chain from Robo3t?

Is there any new version of the app coming with anything in specific for MacOS Catalina?

Robo 3T 1.3.1
OS - macOS Catalina (10.15.3)

@ShakMR I have a solution for you! After a week of digging into what the issue was, I finally know what is happening.

Looks like macOS Catalina did something with their CA certs thing so that your CA bundle (rds-ca-bundle) is no longer trusted. So, in the SSL section, if you select the Authentication Method to be Self Signed Certificate, your issue will be solved.

Having the same exact problem

We solved this in the team by downgrading Robo3T to 1.2.1
