    Description

      When running a secure instance (secured via TLS), each time that a user opens a browser to a NiFi instance, the following logs are dumped into `nifi-app.log`:

      2021-02-03 11:35:57,559 WARN [NiFi Web Server-25] org.apache.nifi.web.api.AccessResource Kerberos ticket login not supported by this NiFi.
      2021-02-03 11:35:57,616 WARN [NiFi Web Server-22] org.apache.nifi.web.api.AccessResource OpenId Connect support is not configured
      2021-02-03 11:35:57,624 WARN [NiFi Web Server-25] org.apache.nifi.web.api.AccessResource SAML support is not configured 

      These should probably go into the nifi-user.log instead of nifi-app.log. But more importantly, the fact that they are not configured is very normal and not worthy of a warning. It should be INFO level at max, probably DEBUG level.

      It's unclear if these warnings were appearing before 1.13, but I think they were in the user log instead of the app log. Could be mistaken about that, though.
