在Ubuntu上创建MSSQL服务器

Question

Is there a way to create an mssql server on Linux? Maybe using the ODBC drivers ?

Answer 1

It was recently announced by Microsoft that there is now a version of SQL Server that can be installed on Linux. The announcement is below;

Answer 2

Just about a week ago (like one day after I asked this question) a public preview of sql server on linux became available. Wow X'D

Installation instructions are described Here .

...so in my case for Ubuntu:

curl https://packages.microsoft.com/keys/microsoft.asc | sudo apt-key add -

then

curl https://packages.microsoft.com/config/ubuntu/16.04/mssql-server.list | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mssql-server.list

and

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -y mssql-server

then run this to configure it

sudo /opt/mssql/bin/sqlservr-setup

and this is an extra command to check that everything's working okay

systemctl status mssql-server

...also it's almost unavoidable to install mssql-tools to work on the server (described here ):

curl https://packages.microsoft.com/keys/microsoft.asc | sudo apt-key add -

then

curl https://packages.microsoft.com/config/ubuntu/16.04/prod.list | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/msprod.list

and

sudo apt-get update 
sudo apt-get install mssql-tools

I wish I could work on a gui though. There's DbVis but I can't get it to work .
