I'm using Sitecore 8.2 update 5 and just setup a MongoDB using SSL, and it works fine but when Sitecore tries to communicate with it, does not work at all.

In my ConnectionStrings.config, I've set as follows

mongodb://mongodb.mydomain.com/analytics?ssl=true

And Sitecore throws an error saying Tracking.Current is not initialized, however, if I remove SSL from MongoDB and the ?ssl=true parameter everything works fine.

Any idea how to properly establish the communication?

    Have you tried looking at the following article: firebreaksice.com/configure-sitecores-mongo-client-use-ssl

  • Yes, I did but it throws an error saying "Could not load file or assembly 'MongoDB.Driver, Version=1.10.0.62", and the MongoDB.Driver.dll is 2.4.4.0 originally. I tried to change it but didn't work either due other dependencies.

    When do you see this error @ViniciusDeschamps? Would mind sharing the code customization you did to read the SSL settings?

OOTB Sitecore does not communicate with Mongo using SSL, we need to implement a custom pipeline for such communication.

Customize the Sitecore.Analytics.MongoDB.Config by defining a new Pipeline.

Now you have two approaches to establish SSL connection between Mongo and Sitecore.

  1. SSL Integration using physical PFX file

  2. SSL Integration reading Machine Key

Please have a look at my blog post for more details.
