Agent Starting Error- Waiting To Recover Database
Jun 5, 2002
SQL agent is using NT login with all permission & agent and sqlserver using the same NT username . SA password has not been changed for more than one year.
The SQL Server agent log is showing "waiting to recover database". What could be the reason ?

Double check with sql service manager. Did you change sa pwd?

While I was out of the office the Lan Team moved one of my SQL Server2000 servers to a new network domain. Since then the maintenance jobhas not ran.The error log for the SQL Agents has the message listed in the subjectline. I have not found any useful articles on the MS SQL Serversite. Anyone know what might be wrong and how to fix it.HTH -- Mark D Powell --

We have a two node cluster running W2K and SQL2000. The agent starts, but we cannot access any of the jobs. It gives us the 14258 Agent is starting, try again later... error message. We know that this is not the case, we have waited several hours without it "starting". The SQL Agent log indicates that the agent is waiting on SQL Server to recover databases, but all of our databases are up. It is almost as if during startup a flag did not get set to indicate that a database was recovered.
Has anyone run across this before? If so, did you ever figure out how to fix it?

Environment: Sql Server 2000 Transaction Rep Distributor. Pub, Sub, and Distributor on separate machines.
Distributor Agent Gets: "Timeout expired (Source: ODBC SQL Server Driver (ODBC); Error number: S1T00)" and the Session Details of the the Distribution Agent says "The process is running and is waiting for a response from one of the backend connections." Of course, in true MS fashion, the message does not specify which connection it is waiting on. It could be waiting on the Publisher or it could be waiting on the Subscriber. Does anyone know how to tell? It would be quite useful to know which "backend" is indicated!
We get this event like clock-work at exactly the same times early every morning as well as at other random times during the day. I can not see any reason for it. Do you have any useful advice?
Thanks a lot!

Hi Guys,
Ive accidently gone and deleted a snapshot agent off a working publication (tables distribution.dbo.mssnapshot_agents, msdb.dbo.sysjobs etc).
Is there a workaround to create a new snapshot agent for the publication without having to break or recreate the publication?
I have tried adding a snapshot and only to fail, can anyone help? thanks a million
---*** Tried adding a snapshot agent ***---
use publishing_database
go
-- Add snapshot job
exec sp_addpublication_snapshot @publication = N'publication_name',
@frequency_type = 4,
@frequency_interval = 1,
@frequency_relative_interval = 1,
@frequency_recurrence_factor = 0,
@frequency_subday = 8,
@frequency_subday_interval = 1,
@active_start_date = 20040101,
@active_end_date = 20040101,
@active_start_time_of_day = 0,
@active_end_time_of_day = 235959
GO
-- RESULT:
Server: Msg 14101, Level 11, State 1, Procedure sp_MSaddpub_snapshot, Line 73
The publication 'publication_name' already has a Snapshot Agent defined.

The SQLAgent service was modified to login as a domain account. SQLAgent would not start. I made sure that the account was in the Admin group on the server, I setup the account as a System Administrator in SQL. I made sure that the network protocols in Client Network Utiliity and Server Network Utility where the same as other servers using the domain account. The message I'm getting is...
SQLServerAgent could not be started (reason: Unable to connect to server; SQLServerAgent cannot start).
I modified the properties for SQLAgent back to login as local account and I still get the same problem.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I am unable to get SQL Agent service to run under the same domain name that my SQL Server service is running under. It will start and continue to run when Server and Agent are both ran under the Local Account. But once the services are switched over to the domain account, the Server starts, but the Agent fails. The domain user has administrative rights on the server, along with admin rights to the SQL instance.
Here is the event log.
Event Type: Error
Event Source: SQLSERVERAGENT
Event Category: Service Control
Event ID: 103
Date: 3/28/2007
User: N/A
Computer: SQL2
Description: SQLServerAgent could not be started (reason: SQLServerAgent must be able to connect to the SQL Server as SysAdmin, but '(Unknown)' is not a member of the SysAdmin role).
Any help would be greatly appreciated or links to threads with answers.

We have SQL Server 7.0 running on an NT 4.0 sp5 box. Whenever we stop the SQL Server Service, we get the message that SQL Agent will also be stopped. If we do this, all the services seem to stop fine, but when we try to start the SQL Server Agent Service back up, it won't let us. In order for it to restart, we have to reboot the server so that it starts 'automatically'. Does anyone have any ideas as to why this is?

How do you start SQL Agent? MS states not to start thru Service Manager as it may corrupt registry. There is no Resource for SQL Agent in 7.0 cluster. The service is down, need to start to get jobs to run. I've just checked (enabled) the properties so Agent will start on O/S reboot or start after Unexpected stop. How do I get it start in the meantime?
Thanks!

Hi,
Running SQL 7.0 on NT4.
When server boots the SQL Server Agent appears to start normally. NT Service starts, Event Viewer shows service is started, Service Control Manager shows service started.
However when I try to view a job or create a lob I get the following error:
Error 14258: Cannot perform this operation while SQLServerAgent is starting. Please try again later.
Has anyone seen this behaviour before??
Thanks in advance

I am running windows 2003 and sql server 2005. i am following the directions in books online:
On the Start menu, point to All Programs, point to Microsoft SQL Server 2005, point to Configuration Tools, and then click SQL Server Configuration Manager.
In SQL Server Configuration Manager, expand Services, and then click SQL Agent.
In the results pane, right-click any instance, and then click Start.
A green arrow on the icon next to the SQL Server Agent and on the toolbar indicates that SQL Server Agent started successfully.
Click OK.
the problem is i have nothing in Services. there is nothing to expand.
is it installed wrong?? or is there another step before this that i have to do??

I've been struggling to figure out how to set the "Log on as" login for a SQL Server agent that isn't a member of the Administrators group.
Is this even possible? No matter what policy settings I assign the the user, I get an access denied error when I try to start the SQL Server Agent service. If that user is part of the administrators group, there are no errors.
I have no problems with other services and "log on as" logins...

Hi
All my SSIS packages consistently take 1 minute to start when they are scheduled via the SQL Agent.
For example, a package runs in 20 seconds in the BI Studio. I transfer it to the SQL server and store it in MSDB. I then run it manually from SSMS - Integration Services and it takes 20 seconds. I then schedule it via a job in the SQL Agent and it takes 1 minute 20 seconds.
I can see from some simple logging that there is consistently a delay of 1 minute between the job starting and the package starting.
I have also switched every occurrence possible of DelayValidation to TRUE in all my packages and tasks. All this did was reduce the package run time from 27 seconds to 20 - the 1 minute delay still exists.
This happens on all my packages on all my servers. Any ideas.....?
Thanks

Hi,
I wonder if anybody can shed any light on this problem. I have a SQL Agent job which has three steps, each step runs an SSIS package.
The job is scheduled to start at 11.00 pm, which is does successfully. However, it has been taking between 2 and 3 hours to run, which is way longer than it should.
When I've looked at the logging, I've found that the although the job starts at 11.00 pm, the first package (in job step 1) does not start executing until about 11.30. It finishes in about 5 minutes, there is then about an hour delay before the second package (in job step 2) starts. This finishes in about 10 minutes, then there is another hour delay before the third package (in job step 3) starts.
I've tried configuring the steps as SSIS jobs, and also as cmd jobs using dtexec, both exhibit the same behaviour.
Any ideas about what could be causing this delay? The packages are stored in msdb on the same server as the SQL Agent job, if that makes any difference.
Thanks,
Sam

I have a Win 2003 server running 3 instances of SQL 2000 Enterprise.
The problem is I can only start 2 of the 3 Job Agents at a time, as the 3rd gets stuck in a starting state.
Has anyone struck this problem before?
Thanks.

Does anybody know what might cause the following message to show up inthe SQL Server Error Log?:Time out occurred while waiting for buffer latch type 2, bp0x12260f80, page (5:77914), stat 0x40d, object ID 7:421576540:0,waittime 500. Continuing to wait.I've read several articles about what to do about this situation onSQL Server 2000, but I'm running SQL Server 7.0. Specifically, I'mrunning version 7.00.842. Is there a way to resolve this problemwithout upgrading to some flavor of SQL Server 2000?

I am attempting to modify the ADS sample to work with my own application and am running into a snag. I have a simple sqlce database that has two tables in it. I have everything working up until the point where I try to "Pull" the data. At this point in time this is what happens.
1.) I successfully Drop Table1 from the SQLCE database and then Pull "Table1" from the desktop database
2.) When attempting to Pull Table2. It runs the DoesTableExist Function, identifies that the table does exist and therefore tries to run the "DropTable" routine before Pulling the desktop Table2 data. As soon as the sqlCmd.ExecuteNonQuery of the DropTable routine runs I get the following error....
"The system timed out waiting for a lock. [ Session id = 1,Thread id = 1318094114,Process id = 1318068802,Table name = Table2,Conflict type = x lock (s blocks),Resource = DDL ][Table2]"
Of Note...I converted the sample to VB.NET so it's possible something didn't convert right? My guess is that it probably has something to with my SQLCE Database but I haven't the slightest clue where to go from there. Anyone have any ideas what might be going on?
Thanks,
Mike

Hello, hoping someone might be able to help.
I've set up Database Mail on an instance of 2005 and the test mail works just fine. However, when testing a job (notify on fail, success, whatever) the mail fails to send. Job History last information reads NOTE: Failed to notify 'My Name' via email.
Checked out the Database Mail logs - nothing interesting.
Restarted the Agent service and then checked out the current Agent Log. Found message:
[260] Unable to start mail session (reason: No mail profile defined).
The 'DatabaseMailProfile' key is most certainly defined in the Registry
(at 'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE', N'SOFTWAREMicrosoftMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1SQLServerAgent')
I'm at a loss...why is it telling me no mail profile defined?
I'd be most grateful for any help if anybody else has run across this problem.
Cheers,
Megan
