KakfaUser does not create mentioned secret automatically

[laukik85]

After creating KafkaUser CRD does not create appropriate secret. I am using following yaml to create KafkaUser.

apiVersion: kafka.banzaicloud.io/v1alpha1
kind: KafkaUser
metadata:
name: user
namespace: kb
spec:
clusterRef:
name: kafka
secretName: user-secret
createCert: false

@baluchicken Let me know if you need any other details.

@laukik85 Based on your kafkaCluster CR, you are not configuring the cluster to use SSL. The reason why this is important is your kafkaUser CR using cert-manager to issue a certificate. It requires something called ClusterIssuer or Issuer resources which can use to generate your certs. Since the kafka cluster does not use SSL no ClusterIssuer generated by the operator so the kafkauser controller with the provided CR cannot generate anything.
On the other hand you set createCert: false which also disables cert generation I suggest to remove that line altogether.

You have two options create a new cluster with ssl enabled or create your own clusterissuer resource for cert manager and use https://github.com/banzaicloud/koperator/blob/master/config/samples/example-user-with-pkibackend.yaml user example to tell the controller which clusterissuer should be used to issue a certificate.
