Hello all,

I have HDF 3.4 cluster A with nifi and nifi registry integrated, cluster B with NIFI. both are tls/ssl secured. now I'm trying to use the cluster A NIFI registry for NIFI running on cluster B.

 

noticing below error when trying to version a flow from cluster B NIFI  integrated with cluster A registry

I have added cluster B nifi node cert to registry users list but still same error

CN=its-nifi-node-dev-nifipoc1-01, OU=NIFI

 

@alim @MattWho @sunile_manjee please advice

The exception implies that the complete trust chain does not exist to facilitate a successful mutual TLS handshake between this NiFI and the target NiFi-Registry.

 

NiFi uses the keystore and truststore configured in its nifi.properties and NiFi-Registry uses the keystore and truststore configured in its nifi-registry.properties files.


Openssl can be used to public certificates for the complete trust chain:

openssl s_client -connect <nifi-registry-hostname>:<port> -showcerts

 

openssl s_client -connect <nifi-hostname>:<port> -showcerts

for each public cert you will see:

Above is just example public cert from openssl command against google.com:443

You will need to make sure that every certificate in the chain when run agains NiFi UI is added to the truststore on NiFi-Registry and vice versa.

You'll need to restart NiFi and NiFi-Registry before changes to your keystore or truststore files will be read in.

Hope this helps,

Matt

Do you have the ssl context service setup properly?

Thanks @sunile_manjee 

 cluster A NIfi & Registry are managed by Ranger, working well.

hence I added cluster B nifi node cert to cluster A Ranger user and then added to Registry policy.

 

clusterB nifi user logs:

2020-08-04 21:40:37,824 INFO [NiFi Web Server-333] o.a.n.w.s.NiFiAuthenticationFilter Authentication success for divya

Returning Conflict response.

 

NIFI GUI exception:
