Hello good people,

While I was trying to connect to documentDB cluster this error came up,  
**No suitable servers found (`serverSelectionTryOnce` set): [socket timeout calling ismaster]**

So anyone with an idea regarding this could u please help 🙂 to sort out this issue.

Cheers!

Are you talking about the server interface [Cockpit Project](https://cockpit-project.org/) or about the headless, api-first [Cockpit CMS](https://getcockpit.com)?  
This forum is about Cockpit CMS.

Ah OK, I wasn’t aware of the Amazon DocumentDB service. Maybe Cockipt uses a MongoDB statement, that isn’t supported by their emulation…

We have a requirement of pointing cockpit headless cms application through AWS documentDB cluster, so we have to provide their SSL certificate path to establish connection. Is there any specific way to configure SSL path in cockpit(in config.php) to establish connection?
