Apache Kafka doens't start after SSL configuration

Time:11-13

I have a Apache Kafka (v. 2.13-3.0.0) installed on a remote Ubuntu server. I follow this tutorial to secure my cluster:

https://medium.com/egen/securing-kafka-cluster-using-sasl-acl-and-ssl-dec15b439f9d

but when I try to start Kafka with jaas conf file with the commands:

export KAFKA_OPTS=-Djava.security.auth.login.config=<kafka-binary- 
dir>/config/kafka_server_jaas.conf
./bin/kafka-server-start.sh ./config/server.properties

I receive the error:

These are the SSL config in server.properties file:

########### SECURITY using SCRAM-SHA-512 and SSL 
listeners=PLAINTEXT://localhost:9092,SASL_PLAINTEXT://localhost:9093,SASL_SSL://localhost:9094

super.users=User:admin

#zookeeper SASL

If I try to comment the 2 rows of ACL I receive the error:

What is the cause? May it be a wrong configuration? Thanks.

Changing the row in:

# ACLs authorizer.class.name=org.apache.kafka.server.authorizer.Authorizer
there is this error: org.apache.kafka.common.KafkaException: Could not find 
a public no-argument constructor for 
org.apache.kafka.server.authorizer.Authorizer at org.apache.kafka.common.utils.Utils.newInstance(Utils.java:392)

but I receive this new error:
