ASF GitHub Bot commented on NIFI-2078: -------------------------------------- Github user ijokarumawak commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/nifi/pull/563 @JPercivall I was able to reproduce the behavior with Kafka 0.10.0. But figured out the cause comes from a different change. [NIFI-2355](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-2355) and its PR #715 added permission check to table sort comparator, in nf-component-state.js. I think it shouldn't be added to state table, since a given user won't have record level permission difference for component state. #715 has the same change for changes nf-controller-services.js and other JS files. I assume adding the permission change to nf-component-state.js was a mistake. By removing the change from nf-component-state.js, I was able to view external state with Kafka 0.10.0 Broker. It's worth noting that I got the same JS error with ListFile when I viewed its state, so the problem is not limited to external state. Failed NIFI-2441 for that issue. > State management for processors whose states are managed externally > ------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: NIFI-2078 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-2078 > Project: Apache NiFi > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Core Framework > Reporter: Koji Kawamura > Assignee: Koji Kawamura > Fix For: 1.0.0 > > > Inherently by the nature of a given processor it may involve state managed by > itself (using nifi state management), or can be managed by some external > service it interacts with (kafka's offset), and theoretically some might have > both going on.
