I am trying to run Microcks Async Minion 1.14.0 in Docker and connect it to my Kafka cluster using environment variables in docker-compose.yml.

The application seems to ignore my configuration and still tries to connect to the default addresses localhost:9092 and localhost:8080.

I define the environment variables as follows:

environment:
  QUARKUS_PROFILE: prod
  MICROCKS_HOST_PORT: microcks-app:8006

  KAFKA_BOOTSTRAP_SERVER: kafka02t.men.ru:9100,kafka02t.men.ru:9098

  # SASL_SSL + PLAIN
  KAFKA_SECURITY_PROTOCOL: SASL_SSL
  KAFKA_SASL_MECHANISM: PLAIN
  KAFKA_SASL_JAAS_CONFIG: org.apache.kafka.common.security.plain.PlainLoginModule required username="${KAFKA_USERNAME}" password="${KAFKA_PASSWORD}";

  # SSL
  KAFKA_SSL_TRUSTSTORE_TYPE: PEM
  KAFKA_SSL_TRUSTSTORE_LOCATION: /deployments/kafka-certs/microcks.men.ru.pem

However, during startup I get the following errors:

Connection to node -1 (localhost:9092) could not be established.
Bootstrap broker localhost:9092 disconnected.

and

Connect to localhost:8080 failed: Connection refused.

The application fails to start with:

Failed to start quarkus

The environment variables are present in the container, but Microcks Async Minion still attempts to use localhost:9092 and localhost:8080.

Why is Microcks Async Minion ignoring my Kafka and Microcks configuration and falling back to localhost values?

Are the environment variable names incorrect for version 1.14.0? Should Kafka and Microcks endpoints be configured through different Quarkus properties, application.properties, or command-line arguments instead?

Hey, sorry for the late reply and thanks for your patience. I just saw you opened a new discussion with updated information on this. I'll try to spend some time on reproducing the issue.
