[Issue] The supplied authentication is not authorized to access 'whisk.system/messaging'.

[patpatpat123]

Hello,

I might be facing an issue and I will be grateful for your expertise.
After building this project, I am not seeing 'whisk.system/messaging'.
I had a look at the documentation on packages: https://github.com/apache/incubator-openwhisk/blob/master/docs/packages.md But yet, no success.

Hence the step of creating the Kafka package wsk -i package bind /whisk.system/messaging myMessageHub -p kafka_brokers_sasl "["localhost:9092"]"
error: Binding creation failed: The supplied authentication is not authorized to access 'whisk.system/messaging' always fail.

May I kindly ask for some advice?
Thank you

Hello,

To follow up, I am currently facing this issue:
wsk -i trigger create MyKafkaTrigger -f /whisk.system/messaging/kafkaFeed -p brokers "["localhost:9092"]" -p topic mytopic -p isJSONData true
ok: deleted trigger MyKafkaTrigger
error: Unable to create trigger 'MyKafkaTrigger': Unable to configure feed '/whisk.system/messaging/kafkaFeed': The requested resource does not exist. (code ALQiXMmsge9APwcDYqdyt2epITdFh2yP)

Hence, I went to check about this kafkaFeed, and rightfully said, it is not here:
~/incubator-openwhisk-devtools/docker-compose$ wsk -i package get --summary /whisk.system/messaging
package /whisk.system/messaging: Returns a result based on parameters bluemixServiceName, endpoint, isBinaryKey, isBinaryValue, isJSONData, kafka_admin_url, kafka_brokers_sasl, password, topic and user
(parameters: *bluemixServiceName, *endpoint, isBinaryKey, isBinaryValue, isJSONData, kafka_admin_url, kafka_brokers_sasl, password, topic, user)
action /whisk.system/messaging/messageHubProduce: Deprecated - Produce a message to Message Hub
(parameters: base64DecodeKey, base64DecodeValue, kafka_brokers_sasl, key, password, topic, user, value)
feed /whisk.system/messaging/messageHubFeed: Feed to list to Message Hub messages
(parameters: endpoint, isBinaryKey, isBinaryValue, isJSONData, kafka_admin_url, kafka_brokers_sasl, password, topic, user)

The guide did not mentioned anything about creating this "kafkaFeed". May I ask in which step this is done please?

Thank you

I was facing a similar issue.
What does wsk -i package list produce for you?
After successfully running the installKafka.sh-script, you should have something like this:

packages
/whisk.system/messagingWeb                                             private
/whisk.system/messaging                                                shared
[…]

For me the issue was that the auth-key I first ran the script with was actually a guest-one, while you need the system one to install the packages into /whisk.system, so I ended up with

packages
/guest/messagingWeb                                             private
/guest/messaging                                                shared
[…]

which results in the "resource does not exist"-error when trying to create the trigger.
