Hi!

Im currently trying to deploy an ES server on Ubuntu. The goal is to obtain data from an Sql Server (remote) via Logstash. Im running into some issues when installing the Jdbc Drivers.  
Im pulling the drivers with the wget command from:

> [https://download.microsoft.com/download/0/2/A/02AAE597-3865-456C-AE7F-613F99F850A8/sqljdbc\_6.0.8112.200\_enu.tar.gz](https://download.microsoft.com/download/0/2/A/02AAE597-3865-456C-AE7F-613F99F850A8/sqljdbc_6.0.8112.200_enu.tar.gz)

i cant find the downloaded .gz (even though i get confirmation about receiving it) file on root....is there someone who has achieved doing this? is the download link ok? any suggestion will be highly apreciated
