JDBC Connection Issue Java Certificate Exception

Question

I was able to use the JDBC driver that came with DataGrip (I'm using a Mac) and seeing the following error message, it was working perfectly fine before and I didn't disturb anything:

Connection to SQL Azure failed
Driver cannot establish (SSL) connection SQL Server
Error: "java.security.cert.CertificateException: cannot authenticat 
(SSL)  ClientConnectionId:d66ab....

I have tried updating the SQL JDBC driver but still can not see the database content. Any ideas ?

EDIT: This is the stack trace I was able to find:

This is the stack trace I was able to find:[08S01] Driver unable to use SSL to establish secure connection with SQL Server。Error: "java.security.cert.CertificateException: can not verify the name of the server in the security communication layer (SSL) initialization period。"。 ClientConnectionId:b7c55361-d82f-4bc1-b1be-124d18433c3b java.security.cert.CertificateException: can not verify the name of the server in the security communication layer (SSL) initialization period

Answer 1

Thanks all for your help. I've investigated and found that the issue could be related to the fact I upgraded to OS Sierra and then DataGrip seemed to break. The solution that I found was the following:

If the hostname of the connecting client is not set or ends with .local, the connection will fail. After I set the hostname, then it was working again.
