Client drivers 8.1 installation hangs on windows server 2016

What version of .net is installed? Fyi ... I was at a client site with a colleague and we had to install .net 4.0 to get the Vertica 8.1.x client installer to run on SQL Server 2016, otherwise the installer would hang.

Hi Jim

we have .NET 4.6, bundled with Windows Server 2016 Standard and we've found the following logs under the user temp dir:

`[63C4:6428][2017-06-21T14:14:24]e000: Error 0x80070642: Bootstrapper application aborted during EXE progress.

Hi Jim

in the user temp dir, we've found some logs like

`[63C4:6428][2017-06-21T14:14:24]e000: Error 0x80070642: Bootstrapper application aborted during EXE progress.

FYI: "Vertica support claims it could support 3.5, 4.0 and 4.5, not 4.6. The Vertica client installer hangs with 4.6."
