Apache NiFi does not support Basic Authentication in any scenario. There are 
multiple options for user authentication to the NiFi UI/API, including LDAP, 
Kerberos, client certificates, Apache Knox, and OpenID Connect. More details 
about configuring these options are available in the Admin Guide [1].

As for your TLS error, my guess is that there is an error with the certificate 
you generated. The error “No overlapping cipher suites available” can occur 
when the certificate is expired or otherwise invalid, and all the available 
cipher suites require an RSA key for signing or encryption. To further debug 
this, you can use the OpenSSL s_client tool to attempt to make a connection via 
the command line, and enable the JSSE SSL debugging via a modification to 
bootstrap.conf. Once you restart, you should see additional TLS/SSL debug 
output in logs/nifi-bootstrap.conf.

For us to be able to offer further advice, you’ll need to provide more 
information, like stacktraces from your logs, or the openssl output from 
examining the certificates. Images do not come through on the list, so please 
copy and paste text output instead. There are other possible explanations, such 
as OS-limited cipher suites available, older browser versions, etc. but these 
are much less common.

Add this line to bootstrap.conf:

java.arg.15=-Djavax.net.debug=ssl,handshake
