Summary: Security without JAAS file Key: KAFKA-13055 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-13055 Project: Kafka Issue Type: Bug Components: security Reporter: Alexey Kashavkin I'm setting up kafka security with multiple listeners. Listener for broker works as plaintext and I don't want to use authentication for them. My cluster has configuration: {code:bash} listeners=BROKERS://:9091,CLIENTS://:9092,CLIENTS-NOSSL://:9093inter.broker.listener.name=BROKERS sasl.enabled.mechanisms=SCRAM-SHA-256listener.security.protocol.map=BROKERS:PLAINTEXT,CLIENTS:SASL_SSL,CLIENTS-NOSSL:SASL_PLAINTEXT {code} For clients, I want use SCRAM and only for them (not for brokers). But when I start broker, I see following message in log: {code:bash} ERROR [KafkaServer id=0] Fatal error during KafkaServer startup. Prepare to shutdown (kafka.server.KafkaServer) java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Could not find a 'KafkaServer' or 'clients.KafkaServer' entry in the JAAS configuration. System property 'java.security.auth.login.config' is not set {code} Why is this file so need, if I don't use authentication for brokers and SCRAM mechanism stores credentials in zookeeper? I didn't find any information about it in [docs|http://kafka.apache.org/documentation/#security]. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
