Hi, when I add microsoft.sqlserve dependency Eureka server shows an error : group: 'com.microsoft.sqlserver', name: 'mssql-jdbc', version: '6.1.0.jre7'

The interaction between Eureka and SQLServer's JDBC driver is out of Spring Boot's control. You're also using a version of SQL Server's JDBC driver that's almost 6 years old. I would upgrade to a current version and see if that resolves the problem. If it does not, you should seek some help from the Eureka community to see why it's trying to load a class, ApacheHttpClient4, that is not on the classpath.
