Spring Cloud Stream consumer startup-CodePudding

I recently migrated my spring cloud stream kafka consumer application from annotations to a functional approach and now it won't start up with the failure

org.springframework.cloud.stream.binder.AbstractMessageChannelBinder.doBindConsumer(AbstractMessageChannelBinder.java:403)\n\t... 33 common frames omitted\nCaused by: 
org.apache.kafka.common.KafkaException: javax.security.auth.login.LoginException: Could not login: the client is being asked for a password, 
but the Kafka client code does not currently support obtaining a password from the user. not available to garner  authentication information 
from the user

t... 40 common frames omitted\nCaused by: javax.security.auth.login.LoginException:

This is the configuration :

jaas:
  options:
    sauAlias: Vault/Conjur/Secret/service_account
    useKeyTab: false
    krbProvider: com.sun.security.auth.module.Krb5LoginModule
    debug: true
  loginModule: com.usaa.kafka.auth3.krb.SauKrbLoginModuleWrapper
  bootstrapServers: >
    someserver:0000, someserver:0001

Is there an attribute that needs to be set to avoid the login prompt ?

CodePudding user response：

If you look at the documentation, you will see that for Krb5LoginModule if use:

useKeyTab:
    Set this to true if you want the module to get the principal's key from the the keytab.(default value is False) If keytab is not set then the module will locate the keytab from the Kerberos configuration file. If it is not specified in the Kerberos configuration file then it will look for the file {user.home}{file.separator}krb5.keytab.

In your case, my assumption is that because you are using useKeyTab = false, it is trying to find the keytab file in the default location: {user.home}{file.separator}krb5.keytab. and it probably does not exist.

Please see this https://andriymz.github.io/kerberos/authentication-using-kerberos/#krb5loginmodule for possible Valid/Invalid configuration combinations.

Your Configuration should look something like:

spring:
 cloud:
  stream:
   kafka:
    binder:
     brokers: localhost:9092  # path to kafka brokers
