Answer 1

I don't know the source of the problem, but during the installation I selected the developer option which would install all resources available to developers.

My work-around was to start the install over again and select the option to only install the server. that ran fine.

Then I ran the install again and selected the option to change or modify the installation. I forget the exact wording but that was the concept. at that point I had all the other features available to add such as workbench, odbc connector, documentation, etc... This ran find and now all seems to be good.

I hope this helps someone.
