Details

    Description

      In domain mode, the server instances cannot find the keytab if the ApplicationRealm is configured to use kerberos as the server-identity:

                  <security-realm name="ApplicationRealm">                                                                                                                               
              <server-identities>                                                                                                                                                  
                <kerberos>                                                                                                                                                         
                  <keytab principal="remote/imahost.imadomain.net@VM29" path="/path/to/keytab"/>                                                       
                </kerberos>                                                                                                                                                        
              </server-identities>                                                                                                                                                              
              <authentication>                                                                                                                                                                     
                <kerberos remove-realm="true"/>                                                                                                                                    
              </authentication>                                                                                                                                                    
              <authorization>                                                                                                                                                      
                <properties path="application-roles.properties" relative-to="jboss.domain.config.dir"/>                                                                                                   
               </authorization>                                                                                                                                                     
            </security-realm>

      This results in the following error and the server instances fail to start:

      [Server:server-one] 15:10:35,360 ERROR [org.jboss.as.controller.management-operation] (Controller Boot Thread) WFLYCTL0013: Operation ("validate-authentication") failed - address: ([
