There have been some reports here and there that some people were not able
to run the Windows installation for the Beta 2 SQL Server JDBC driver. When
you try to run setup.exe, nothing would happen and the install would never
begin.
We tracked this down to a bad download on one of the servers somewhere, and
corrected the problem, so this should not be happening anymore. We have
already confirmed that several machines that were previously not working
can now install Beta 2 successfully. In the testing I have done, if you get
a bad file, it's 5,251KB in size, whereas the good download is 5,245KB.
Thanks,
