I cannot install an accessible SQL Server Express Edition on my Ubuntu Server. N.B. I had SQL Server running for ages on my Ubuntu Server but after some months of not using it when I tried to connect this week my attempts to connect from my windows 10 client pc (using SQL Server Management Studio) failed. As such I started from scratch by rebuilding my Ubuntu Server and with such a clean platform then tried to reinstall SQL Server 2017 Express. But connections still failed with the attached error
Investigating the error msg on the web I find this is a known problem with the SQL Server team first stating the fix was to downgrade openssl to release 1.0.2g but I've done this and I still cannot connect. The SQL Server team then updated the link stating the fix was no longer required but installing SQL Server using the instructions provided by the official Microsoft web pages also fails to give me an installation that I can connect to. So I'm stumped and after nearly 20 years of using SQL Server naturally I'm pretty disappointed. Can anyone help me resolve this problem. Remember the Ubuntu Server installation is very minimal, all I've installed is Webmin after the initial Ubuntu Server install.
