Hi, i using v1.3.0, when trying implements authBasic from file kairosdb.conf not working

Also, it never recognizes the configuration file with extension ".conf"

I tried absolute and relative paths but it never worked. Please help me.

Thank you

The bit you are missing is -Djava.security.auth.login.config=/opt/kairosdb/conf/auth/basicAuth.conf

Put that to the JVM_OPTS in kairosdb-env.sh

like this:

JAVA_OPTS="$JAVA_OPTS -Djava.security.auth.login.config=/opt/kairosdb/conf/auth/basicAuth.conf"

Assuming that is where your conf file is located. This was in the documentation that was linked but it looks like the links have moved. I now even remember having a conversation with the engineer that added this feature and he told me it was in the linked docs and it bothered me just a bit at the time. Obviously it should have bothered me more. I'll fix the docs in the kairosdb.conf file.
