Kafka

Do you need 3.9.0 exactly or would 3.9.2 work? All the latest releases: https://downloads.apache.org/kafka/ Kafka 3.9.2 https://downloads.apache.org/kafka/3.9.2/ It should be binary-compatible with 3.9.0 after some patch fixes.

We recently archived some release, and actually also updated the web-page. At least we intended to update the download page... You are right, the web-page does not reflect the updated links atm. We will look into this and fix it asap. For now, you can find the correct links on this PR: https://github.com/apache/kafka-site/commit/93535e03d8576a58e3035aba44d35bbdaf76eff7 Thanks for letting us know about this issue. -Matthias On 3/2/26 8:35 AM, Hitoshi Kageyama (Fujitsu) via users wrote: > I am trying to download Kafka 3.9.0 from the following site, but I am getting a "Not Found" error: > > https://kafka.apache.org/community/downloads/ > > I specifically need to download the "Binary downloads" module.

I am trying to download Kafka 3.9.0 from the following site, but I am getting a "Not Found" error: https://kafka.apache.org/community/downloads/ I specifically need to download the "Binary downloads" module. Could you please advise on how to resolve this issue?

Hi Andrew, * verified the gpg signatures * looked at the release notes * checked that the artifacts can be resolved in maven * ran the quickstart and clients against them * ran the docker quickstart * checked the docs Apart from the protocol link pointing to the old docs (I think) all seems good. +1 (binding) Thanks for running the release!
