------------------------------------

             Summary: rest.advertised.listener configuration is not handled 
properly by the worker
                 Key: KAFKA-9768
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-9768
             Project: Kafka
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: KafkaConnect
            Reporter: Chris Egerton
            Assignee: Chris Egerton


The {{rest.advertised.listener}} config can currently be set to either "http" 
or "https", and a listener with that protocol should be used when advertising 
the URL of the worker to other members of the Connect cluster.

For example, someone might configure their worker with a {{rest.listeners}} 
value of {{https://localhost:42069,http://localhost:4761}} and a 
{{rest.advertised.listener}} value of {{http}}, which should cause the worker 
to listen on port {{42069}} with TLS and port {{4761}} with plaintext, and 
advertise the URL {{http://localhost:4761}} to other workers.

However, the worker instead advertises the URL {{https://localhost:42069}} to 
other workers. This is because the {{RestServer}} class, which is responsible 
for determining which URL to advertise to other workers, simply [chooses the 
first listener whose name begins with the 
protocol|https://github.com/apache/kafka/blob/0f48446690e42b78a9a6b8c6a9bbab9f01d84cb1/connect/runtime/src/main/java/org/apache/kafka/connect/runtime/rest/RestServer.java#L422]
 specified in the {{rest.advertised.listener}} config.

This breaks because "http" is a prefix of "https", so if the advertised 
listener is "http" but the first listener that's found starts with "https://";, 
that listener will still be chosen.
