JEE containers), JAAS configuration may be set > using methods different from the System property > {{java.security.auth.login.config}}. While Kafka obtains JAAS configuration > correctly using {{Configuration.getConfiguration()}}, an exception is thrown > if the System property {{java.security.auth.login.config}} is not set even > when the property is never used. There are also misleading error messages > which refer to the value of this property which may or may not be the > configuration for which the error is being reported. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
