javax.crypto.AEADBadTagException: Tag mismatch!

Dave0x1 — Fri, 19 Jan 2024 07:34:55 GMT

Hi there, I need some help regarding using a flow.xml.gz from 1.13 to 1.24. First our nifi setup:

2 node cluster running on ec2 instances in aws where we run nifi in docker containers. We have succesfully upgraded from 1.13 to 1.24 after making a backup of the flow.xml.gz file.

We then stop the nifi containers and put back the flow.xml.gz from version 1.13. Then startup nifi. Unfortunately we get the following error:

After some trial and errors found where the problem lies, our nifi 1.13 uses the old alogrithm: PBEWITHMD5AND256BITAES-CBC-OPENSSL

I tried to change this running the following command to change the flow.xml.gz and flow.json.gz to the correct algo.

# ./nifi.sh set-sensitive-properties-algorithm NIFI_PBKDF2_AES_GCM_256

@Dave0x1

That is a big jump in versions from 1.13 directly to 1.24.

Use NiFi toolkit instead to change the algorithm.
https://nifi.apache.org/download/
NiFi Toolkit 1.24.0

./encrypt-config.sh -n <nifi.properties from original 1.13 NiFi> -f <flow.xml.gz from original 1.13 NiFi> -x -s <sensitive props key from NiFi> -b <bootstrap.conf from original 1.13 NiFi> -A NIFI_PBKDF2_AES_GCM_256 -g <new 1.24 flow.xml.gz filename>

Then in your NiFi 1.24 remove or rename the current flow.xml.gz and flow.json.gz files.
Place the flow.xml.gz output from above toolkit command into same location and make sure permissions and ownership are correct.

Start your NiFi 1.24. Since the flow.json.gz does not exist, NiFi will load the flow.xml.gz and upon successful startup generate the new flow.json.gz file it will load from that point forward each time NiFi is restarted.

Hope this works for you.

Thank you very much Mat for your advice. I'll try it out today and get back to you with the results. Sounds promising 🤓

Dave0x1 — Mon, 22 Jan 2024 12:21:11 GMT

Hi Mat, it works! Awesome, nifi 1.24 starts up with the flow we had from 1.13 👏 Thank you very much for the advice. We are again one step further towards finalizing our migration plan.

Only thing left is is now we get the following error from the flow with regards to the nifi-registry.
