--------------------------------------
Summary: RethinkDB processors require Username and Password
Key: NIFI-6829
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-6829
Project: Apache NiFi
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Extensions
Affects Versions: 1.9.2
Reporter: Nicholas Carenza
The RethinkDB suite of processor all require username and password. They are
marked as optional but if you don't provide them then the processor fails to
initialize.
It's probably because in the AbstractRethinkDBProcessor the `makeConnection`
method doesn't have a case for making a connection in the absence of username
and password.
When you run the processor in this case you get an unhelpful RuntimeError with
no message and a NullPointerException .
