java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/kafka/connect/errors/ConnectException on Secret Provider check in ensure script

[pkleindl]

Hi I was trying to use the secret provider for Azure Key Vault from lenses.io https://github.com/lensesio/secret-provider https://github.com/lensesio/secret-provider/releases/tag/2.1.6

I added the jar file to the directory used COPY secret-provider-2.1.6-all.jar /usr/share/java/cp-base-new/

When I start the container (confluentinc/cp-kafka-connect-base:latest) I get the following exception:

===> Check if Kafka is healthy ...
Using log4j config /etc/cp-base-new/log4j.properties

When I add connect-api-3.4.0.jar to the directory this exception does not occur.

Maybe this class was moved in the past, would probably be good to include the file by default.
