I just noticed that with the latest release candidate, the binaries from the Scala 2.13 and 2.12 tarballs are not finding the class for the meta data shell
https://home.apache.org/~vvcephei/kafka-2.8.0-rc1/ It looks like kafka-run-class.sh is not able to load it. Is this a known issue? Should I open an issue to track it? isekpo@MININT-5RPA920:/mnt/c/Users/isekpo/kafka_2.12-2.8.0$ bin/kafka-metadata-shell.sh --help Error: Could not find or load main class org.apache.kafka.shell.MetadataShell Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.kafka.shell.MetadataShell isekpo@MININT-5RPA920:/mnt/c/Users/isekpo/kafka_2.12-2.8.0$ cd ../kafka_2.13-2.8.0/ isekpo@MININT-5RPA920:/mnt/c/Users/isekpo/kafka_2.13-2.8.0$ bin/kafka-metadata-shell.sh --help Error: Could not find or load main class org.apache.kafka.shell.MetadataShell Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.kafka.shell.MetadataShell On Fri, Apr 9, 2021 at 4:52 PM Bill Bejeck <bbej...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi John, > > Thanks for running the 2.8.0 release! > > I've started to validate it and noticed the site-docs haven't been > installed to https://kafka.apache.org/28/documentation.html yet. > > Thanks again! > > -Bill > > On Tue, Apr 6, 2021 at 5:37 PM John Roesler <vvcep...@apache.org> wrote: > >> Hello Kafka users, developers and client-developers, >> >> This is the second candidate for release of Apache Kafka >> 2.8.0.
