Installing SQL Server on Linux Ubuntu or Linux mint
You should install Microsoft odbc driver on your Linux, when you want to remote to a SQL server on any other operation system or work with sqlcmd (that it's support SQL server instructions).
First of all, you need to be super user:
sudo su
Then, add Microsoft packages repository to your own Linux.
curl https://packages.microsoft.com/keys/microsoft.asc | apt-key add -
Download appropriate package for the OS version Choose only ONE of the following, corresponding to your OS version
lsb_release -a
Ubuntu 16.04
curl https://packages.microsoft.com/config/ubuntu/16.04/prod.list > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mssql-release.list
Ubuntu 18.04
curl https://packages.microsoft.com/config/ubuntu/18.04/prod.list > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mssql-release.list
Ubuntu 19.10, 20.04
curl https://packages.microsoft.com/config/ubuntu/19.10/prod.list > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mssql-release.list
After that, exit from super user login.
exit
Update your aptitude package list cache.
sudo apt-get update
Install msodbcsql package. This is your Microsoft odbc driver.
sudo ACCEPT_EULA=Y apt-get install msodbcsql17
sudo apt-get install unixodbc-dev
If you want to remotely connect to a SQL server on any other operating system (like windows), you can use only odbc driver. But, if you want to install sql server on your own Linux and using it, you should type this following commands:
# optional: for bcp and sqlcmd
sudo ACCEPT_EULA=Y apt-get install mssql-tools
echo 'export PATH="$PATH:/opt/mssql-tools/bin"' >> ~/.bash_profile
echo 'export PATH="$PATH:/opt/mssql-tools/bin"' >> ~/.bashrc
source ~/.bashrc
