I could use mssql 2005 as database for explorer. activiti engine documentation specifies mssql is experimental using jtds (not plain jdbc), and also on sql server 2008
I changed the applicationContext.xml to have (you can use the property variables than just putting direct values in the xml)

<bean id="mssqlDataSource" class="org.apache.commons.dbcp.BasicDataSource">
  <property name="driverClassName" value="net.sourceforge.jtds.jdbc.Driver" />
  <property name="url" value="jdbc:jtds:sqlserver://localhost/activiti" />
  <property name="username" value="sa" />
  <property name="password" value="sa" />
  <property name="defaultAutoCommit" value="false" />
</bean>
<bean id="transactionManager"
  class="org.springframework.jdbc.datasource.DataSourceTransactionManager">
  <property name="dataSource" ref="mssqlDataSource" />
</bean>

<bean id="processEngineConfiguration" class="org.activiti.spring.SpringProcessEngineConfiguration">
  <property name="dataSource" ref="mssqlDataSource" />
  <property name="transactionManager" ref="transactionManager" />
  <property name="databaseSchemaUpdate" value="false" />
  <property name="jobExecutorActivate" value="true" />
  <property name="customFormTypes">
   <list>
    <ref bean="userFormType" />
   </list>
  </property>
</bean>

<bean id="processEngine" class="org.activiti.spring.ProcessEngineFactoryBean"
  destroy-method="destroy">
  <property name="processEngineConfiguration" ref="processEngineConfiguration" />
</bean>

you will face a problem with databaseSchemaUpdate=true as the sql the activiti engine generates to update will work only for 2008 server not for 2005.
so you manually create tables, I created a script for that, you can use it if you want. script couldnt be attached.

but attachments on this bb dont allow .txt or .sql you can pm/email me for that.

I think I can paste it here as code
create table ACT_GE_PROPERTY (
    NAME_ nvarchar(64),
    VALUE_ nvarchar(300),
    REV_ int,
    primary key (NAME_)

insert into ACT_GE_PROPERTY
values ('schema.version', '5.7', 1);

insert into ACT_GE_PROPERTY
values ('schema.history', 'create(5.7)', 1);

insert into ACT_GE_PROPERTY
values ('next.dbid', '1', 1);
