DB Installation fails on MSSQL

[jwm]

Connection to MS SQL fails with the following stack trace.

I note in the stack trace ... java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: javax.xml.bind.DatatypeConverter

Possibly JDK version? 

JAVA_HOME and Path variable are set..... 

Any ideas?

I also tried local DB install but that just hangs....

Ok, seems I managed to solve it.

I initially ran Java 11. Uninstalled it and installed Java 8. Viola - it worked.
