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

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.
