I assume you meant something similar to the following:
I'm restoring a Joomla site whose database requires an SSL/TLS connection. The restoration script's database page gives me nowhere to enter the SSL settings, so the connection fails. Those fields need to exist in the database form.
You guessed the wrong file. The fields do exist in the form and the installation/media/js/database.min.js file does handle them. The problem comes from installation/src/View/Database/Html.php:191 which defines ANGIE_DB_ALLOW_SSL instead of the correct constant BRS_DB_ALLOW_SSL. Change that constant's name and you'll be able to restore the site just fine.
I will also be including this fix into the next release, planned for tomorrow.
