Sounds for me like this message comes from the database...like the setup tries to define a default value for a column and the database doesn't like it?

Okay. I think I now what your problem is.
I will fix it today and update the pre-beta later.

Hi,
this bug should be fixed with pre-beta 3.
But note the hints!
