Kafkacat fails in TLS example

[kamir]

Using the TLS demo works as expected.
I can bring up the cluster and use the produce and consume example as recommended at the end in the script named up.

[OK] -> docker-compose exec kafka kafka-console-producer --broker-list kafka.confluent.local:9093 --topic test --producer.config /etc/kafka/consumer.properties
[OK] -> docker-compose exec kafka kafka-console-consumer --bootstrap-server kafka.confluent.local:9093 --topic test --consumer.config /etc/kafka/consumer.properties --from-beginning

[FAILE] -> docker-compose exec kafka kafkacat -L -b kafka.confluent.local:9093 -F /etc/kafka/kafkacat.conf -C -t test

This is the error message:
kafkacat: error while loading shared libraries: libssl.so.10: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Debugging the issue:

(1) I looks like configuration issue in libssl libraries.

(2) docker-compose exec kafka yum info openssl

Solution:
The Dockerfile for Kafka image contains:

FROM centos

which means, the system pulls the latest CentOS (version 8) image.

Using

FROM centos:centos7

solved the problem.
