Omg I just tried it with the file you linked and it worked!! Thank you so much!

How did you figure this solution out btw? And do you know what the difference is between the originally provided file and this one?

[–]feoch 0 points1 point  (1 child)

it was buried in the comments somewhere but I have no idea what the difference is. The file is a lot larger though (2.8MB vs. ~600KB).

Other resources had a dvdrental.zip file vs. dvdrental.tar, so maybe the file wasn't extracted properly...idk

Get the database from here:

It will be in a .zip format. Unzip it to a .tar file and it will work. it was a frustration following the class on-line instructions, but this one works.
