Support for MSSQL on Linux?

Post by riceboyler » Tue 13 Dec 2016 14:34

Recently, Microsoft released a version of SQL Server that runs on Linux natively. It can be run in a Docker instance (which is how I'm running it so I can access from my Mac). When I attempt to connect to it via SQLForge (running in a Windows VM), I get the message that "This server version 14.00.0001 is not currently supported." I believe it's based on SQL Server 2016 (which is in the v14 range), so it seems that this specific version is not supported for some reason. Are there any plans to support it in the near future? For what it's worth, DataGrip from Jetbrains is able to access the database like it's any other SQL database, so I don't think there's a schema difference or anything.

Thanks!

We supported this functionality in dbForge Studio for SQL Server, v5.5 https://www.devart.com/dbforge/sql/studio/download.html

Thank you for your help in improving dbForge Studio for SQL Server.
