  • @Parita did you find a workaround? To make mssql work in ubuntu 14.04? – OutOfMind Aug 30 '17 at 12:18

you can't install mssql in ubuntu 14.04..Docs clearly state supported versions

SQL Server vNext CTP 2.0 is supported on the following platforms:

enter image description here

Just to add ,I thought installing docker would support versions less than 16,but from docker file we could see below

Base OS layer: Latest Ubuntu LTS.
FROM ubuntu:16.04

which means it needs ubuntu:16.04 versions to be present

For a workaround, you can use run a Docker container (microsoft/mssql-server-linux), e.g.

docker run -e "ACCEPT_EULA=Y" -e "SA_PASSWORD=yourStrongPassword!" -p 1433:1433 microsoft/mssql-server-linux

Then connect to localhost:1433 with your SQL client.

You can't because You must have 16.04+ Ubuntu version to install MSSQL according to documentation.

It is not possible to instal sql server 2008 or 2012 on any non window platform. This feature came with 2016 or 2017.
