This is actually a bug report against the InnoBase website,
dropping it here instead as requested on http://www.innodb.com/communicate/

The download link given on the Embedded InnoDB products page

http://www.innodb.com/wp/products/embedded-innodb/

is dead and results in a "404 not found" error

How to repeat:
Check the download link given on the product page:

un-break it

Thank you for the problem report.

The Embedded InnoDB project was terminated more than two years ago. Some of the InnoDB API work has been folded into MySQL 5.6.

So the dead link is going to stay on the InnoBase pages forever then? (That's how i understand 'Wont Fix' in this context).

Wouldn't it be better to clearly communicate that the product as such does not exist anymore?
