This is a known problem and, for now, the workaround is to set:

nifi.security.allow.anonymous.authentication=true

The property name is unfortunately misleading. This does not change
anything in terms of security. What it means is that static content of the
UI (css, js, png, etc) can be accessed without the authentication token.
There are discussions to find a solution for this.

Thanks,
Pierre
