--------------------------------------
Summary: TLS Toolkit in server mode does not indicate missing JDK
JCE Unlimited Strength Support
Key: NIFI-6254
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-6254
Project: Apache NiFi
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Security, Tools and Build
Affects Versions: 1.9.2
Environment: JDK 1.8.112
Centos 7
Reporter: Yolanda M. Davis
Assignee: Andy LoPresto
When attempting to run the TLS Toolkit in server mode using a JDK that is not
configured with the JCE Unlimited Strength policy files, the toolkit returns an
error that does not clearly indicate the issue.
For example when running the following command that uses a Java Home without:
${NIFI_TOOLKIT_DIST}/bin/tls-toolkit.sh server -F -f
${NIFI_TOOLKIT_CA_CONFIG_FILE}
The scripts responds with the following:
"Service server error: null"
To surface this error it was necessary to do remote debugging (to see
InvocationException errors were being thrown yet not shown). The request is to
surface this type of error in order for users to take corrective action (in
this case ensuring the JCE policy files are added to the Java SDK Home).
