I get this error when I try installing the tools
Error: Formulae found in multiple taps:
* microsoft/mssql-preview/mssql-tools
* microsoft/mssql-release/mssql-tools
Microsoft has made SQL Server available for macOS and Linux systems. This is made possible by running SQL Server from a Docker container. Therefore, there's no need to install a virtual machine with Windows (which was the only way to run SQL Server on a Mac prior to SQL Server 2017).
This error is triggered if you previously tapped the preview repo. You can resolve this by the following commands
brew untap microsoft mssql-preview
brew tap microsoft/mssql-release https://github.com/Microsoft/homebrew-mssql-release
brew update
brew install mssql-tools
The fix above didn't help me. What did, is to specify the full name of the package on the brew install section.
A.K.A -
brew untap microsoft mssql-preview
<if this tap does not exist, then> -
brew untap microsoft mssql-release
brew tap microsoft/mssql-release
https://github.com/Microsoft/homebrew-mssql-release
brew update
brew install microsoft/mssql-release/mssql-tools
