             Summary: ConsoleProducer rejects producer property values with equals signs
                 Key: KAFKA-7463
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-7463
             Project: Kafka
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 2.0.0
            Reporter: Magnus Reftel


The --producer-property option of ConsoleProducer rejects proprty values with equals signs with the message "Invalid command line properties". This makes specifying SASL configuration via the the sasl.jaas.config property difficult, since these values often contain equals signs. It's possible to work around the issue by writing the SASL configuration to a separate file, and then specifying it via
{code:java}
KAFKA_OPTS=-Djava.security.auth.login.config=$filename{code}
but there seems to be no good reason to not allow the more direct route.
