I've tried to connect for the first time to kafka cluster in Kubernetes (Strimzi operator) over TLS. The TLS connection is working as I am able to connect using kafkacat. The issue seems to be with the Java client only.

Locally, I have imported CA certificate as a PEM key and the user certificate and user key as a p12 file.

The configuration looks like this:

security.protocol=SSL
ssl.truststore.location=/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.8.0-amazon-corretto/jre/lib/security/CARoot.pem
ssl.keystore.location=/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.8.0-amazon-corretto/jre/lib/security/keyStore.p12
ssl.keystore.password=<redacted>
ssl.enabled.protocols=TLSv1.2
ssl.truststore.type=PEM
ssl.keystore.type=pkcs12
ssl.endpoint.identification.algorithm=
