Devin G. Bost updated KAFKA-10840: ---------------------------------- Summary: Need way to catch auth issues in poll method of Java Kafka client (was: Need way to catch auth issues in poll method) > Need way to catch auth issues in poll method of Java Kafka client > ----------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: KAFKA-10840 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-10840 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Devin G. Bost > Priority: Blocker > > We recently implemented SSL authentication at our company, and when certs > expire, the Kafka client poll method silently fails without throwing any kind > of exception. This is a problem because the data flow could stop at any time > (due to certificate expiration) without us being able to handle it. The auth > issue shows up in Kafka broker logs, but we don't see any indication on the > client-side that there was an auth issue. As a consequence, the auth failure > happens 10 times a second forever. > We need a way to know on the client-side if an auth issue is blocking the > connection to Kafka so we can handle the exception and refresh the certs > (keystore/truststore) when the certs expire. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
