LB4 with [email protected] causing SSL Error

从粘贴的 ProductSelectionApplication 构造函数和使用 [email protected] 的 datasource 配置开始。在与本地环境进行比较的同时，复现 IBM Cloud Kubernetes 部署中的 SSL 失败，然后检查 connector 对 PostgreSQL 和 SSL 的处理。完成的标准是确定原因，并通过有文档记录且经过测试的配置或 connector 修复解决 certificate-chain 错误。

I kept getting the same error in LB4 even using the right syntax below and right version of [email protected] after I deploy it to IBM Cloud Kubenetes, it runs without any issues on my local.

    rejectUnauthorized: false,
  },
});
this.bind('datasources.productSelection').toClass(ProductSelectionDataSource);

// Set up the custom sequence
this.sequence(MySequence);

// Set up default home page
this.static('/', path.join(__dirname, '../public'));

// Customize @loopback/rest-explorer configuration here
this.configure(RestExplorerBindings.COMPONENT).to({

this.component(RestExplorerComponent);

this.projectRoot = __dirname;

  controllers: {
    // Customize ControllerBooter Conventions here
    dirs: ['controllers'],
    extensions: ['.controller.js'],
    nested: true,
  },

}
}

The error I got:

I tried to use old version of [email protected] but it seems the latest version of LB4 doesn't like it. the LB4 version list below:
