I am on the following page:

https://www.quackit.com/sql_server/mac/install_sql_server_on_a_mac.cfm

In step 1, it says to use the following Docker command in a terminal:

docker pull microsoft/mssql-server-linux

However, that command is outdated and did not work.

I made my way to the following URL:

https://hub.docker.com/_/microsoft-mssql-server

I used the following command I found there:

docker pull mcr.microsoft.com/mssql/server:2019-latest

Using the command directly above, I could see the terminal pulling and completing the installation.

So now in step 2, it says to use the following Docker command:

docker run -d --name Homer -e 'ACCEPT_EULA=Y' -e 'SA_PASSWORD=myPassw0rd' -p 1433:1433 microsoft/mssql-server-linux

But then says if I used a different container, I have to replace "microsoft/mssql-server-linux" with my container image.

This is where I'm stuck.

I tried to use the following:

docker run -d --name Homer -e 'ACCEPT_EULA=Y' -e 'SA_PASSWORD=myPassw0rd' -p 1433:1433 mcr.microsoft.com/mssql

But I get the following error:

Unable to find image 'mcr.microsoft.com/mssql:latest' locally
docker: Error response from daemon: manifest for mcr.microsoft.com/mssql:latest not found: manifest unknown: manifest tagged by "latest" is not found.

What am I doing wrong?

CodePudding user response：

When you pulled the image, you used:

mcr.microsoft.com/mssql/server:2019-latest

When you ran the container, you used something else:

docker run -d ... mcr.microsoft.com/mssql

Why did you shorten this and leave stuff out of it? Docker can't read your mind or perform auto-complete for you. Try:

docker run -d ... mcr.microsoft.com/mssql/server:2019-latest
