Comments on resolution of nonassociativity in SFT: an example from axioms of BCFT

It is known that the associativity of the star product of the open string field theory may be broken in the presence of the nontrivial closed string background. We give an argument that such an anomaly may be resolved by including Chan-Paton factors starting from the axioms of the rational conformal field theory.
