I have downloaded the online books (SqlServer2K5_BOL_May2007.msi) twice now and when I go to install it I keep getting the same error message:
This installation package could not be opened. Contact the application vendor to verify that this is a valid Windows Installer package.
I got the file from here:

What can possibly be wrong?
You have downloaded the correct package, right? For instance, if you try to open a 32-bit application on an IA64 server you might get this kind of message. Which operating system are you trying to install on?

|||I did download the correct package but something was wrong. I ended up downloading it from a different computer and putting it on a flashdrive. It then installed correctly on my computer. Not sure what the deal was but it's resolved now.|||I see. Well, if you need any other help with that, let me know. By the way, now that you have that installed, there are some useful tips and info about Books Online here:
