How To Restart MSSQL SERVER Service
Feb 20, 2006hello,
View 1 Replieshello,
View 1 RepliesI have a problem that has happened a couple of times now. I'm in the process of testing our 2005 deployment - Standard edition on 2003 x64 servers for principal and mirror and 2005 express witness. All are pre SP1. Two databases are being mirrored.
I have successfully set up mirroring which seems to work fine - but when I restart the MSSQL service on the principal, spurious things happen:
The server that *was* the principal before restart
database A is in (Mirror, Disconnected / In Recovery) state
database B is in (In Recovery)
The server that *was* the mirror:
database A is in (Principal, Disconnected)
database B is in (Principal, Disconnected)
I can connect to both servers via Studio Manager and when I try to go to the current principal database to stop mirroring, the Studio Manager hangs and becomes non-responsive.
Any ideas?
Thanks
I have recently changed my NT password and since then one of my machines has not been able to start MSSQL server. When I re-boot the machine it lets me know that it was unable to start MSSQL server. If I right click on the SQL server group in EM and try to manually start the service, it tells me that I have a login failure. I don't understand how changing my NT password would affect one machine and not the others. When I right click on the "edit SQL service registration properties" tab, all of the machines are using the NT password selection as opposed to the SQL server authentication password. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated

We have been having a problem with on of our servers, applications connecting to it are experiencing poor performance, even though the server is only running at a peak of 50%.
The odd thing is that after a sql service restart we couldnt connect at all on the SQL port. We were only able to re-connect after rebooting the actuall box. Is there anything that can be done about this? Its strting to look like a network related problem instead of SQL
I have got the error “a network related or instance specific error occurred sql server 2012 “.I have enabled tcp/ip, restarted the services. The sql server service is getting stopped even after the manual restart. I have checked in event viewer and I noticed a error. Here is the error...The log scan number (43:456:1) passed to log scan in database ‘model’ is not valid. This error may indicate data corruption or that the log file (.ldf) does not match the data file (.mdf). If this error occurred during replication, re-create the publication.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a service that depends on SQL Server service. Basically we make sure that our service only starts after SQL server service started. Unfortunately this dependency does not ensure that database is available.
Basically I observed in Application log that SQL server reports that it started to listen on a port. And then I see that recovery process started. As I understand SQL server is not available while database is in the recovery state.
Note: I might have not used a correct terminology to describe SQL server recovery process as I don't have access to Application log with the exact message at the moment. I can verify the message if necessary.
Because SQL server service is started our service starts and attempts to connect to the database. Service fails to connect to database, because of the restoration process. Once restoration is done service connects successfully.
I observed that restoration process starts every time machine is rebooted. It only takes a few minutes to run, but it is enough to generate a number of error messages in event log about failed SQL connections.
My first question is: Is it normal for database to enter into recovery state every time machine is rebooted?
My second question is: If it is a normal operation, is there any way to detect that SQL server is truly available, so our code does not have to try retry establishing connection many times

I'm having trouble with restoring the master db on w2k3 sql2000 sp3a to a Secondary Standby server.
Firstly, I place the server in Single user mode and then restore the master db. The sql server then tries to restart sql services but immediately stops as soon as it starts up.
Can anyone help ?? Please !
Thx, Steve

When I re-boot the machine, if the sql server is set to "automatic", will the service re-start when re-booting the machine?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am having trouble with a linked server using MSDASQL. I'm connecting to a PostgreSQL database and pulling over data. This process has been working fine.
In trying to pull data from a different client database (same schema), I received an error that the MSDASQL couldn't read the column names.
The actual problem I want help on is that after this happens, I am no longer able to make valid connections to any of my Linked Servers using MSDASQL. The only way I can get my other linked servers to work again is to restart the SQL Service. Usually this is impossible for me to do because of the number of active users.
Two questions:
1) Is there another way to restart a more targeted service or sub-set to reset MSDASQL connections, and clear out my problem?
2) Any idea why I'm getting this error connecting to PostgreSQL on a large dataset when it worked fine for a small dataset using the same linked server? "The provider reported an unexpected catastrophic failure."
Any help is appreciated.
Every so often I get an error when I pull up an ASP.NET 2.0 site using
SQL Express. It tells me that the login failed. If I go
into the server's administrative tools > services and restart SQL
Express and then refresh the site, it works just fine. Is this
some sort of bug or memory issue? Does the application need to
connect every so often or end up falling out somewhere?
Thanks
I inherited a SQL 2012 Ent server sitting on a 2008R2 server using AlwaysOn High Availability, two nodes.
Available Mode: Synchronous commit
Failover Mode: Manual
Connection in Primary role: Allow all connections
Readable secondary: No
seesion timeout: 10
Somebody decided to give SQL server priority boost so I need to change this ASAP. So I plan on doing the following.
1. Manually fail over to the secondary, which does not have the priority boost set to true
2. change the setting
3. restart the service
4. Manually fail over
My question is with the service restart. How does SQL handle if the DB changes on the new primary while the secondary is having the service restarted. Where can I see if the DB are sync again or if not where are they in the sync process.
A few service stop/start/restart questions on SQL Server 2005 SP2, whichI'll call SQLS.It looks as if there are *potentially* 6 ways to start/stop SQLSServices like the engine itself, integration services, reportingservice, Agent..-SQLS Configuration Manager-SQLS Surface Area Configuration (for Services and Connections)-Mgmt Studio Local (on server)-Mgmt Studio Remote (on client)-Windows Control Panel->Admin Tools->Services-Command Prompt (ala net start MSSQLSERVER)By policy, I am /not/ Administrator on the server. But I am SysAdminrole in SQLS. I have had various levels of success starting/stoppingservices in the ways listed above. In some I get Access denied, and inothers I get no msg and it simply doesn't work.Is there some special non-Admin OS group I need to be in to start/stopservices? Is this handled differently in the different interfaceslisted above?It seems like my best success for starting/stopping the engine and Agentis in /local/ Mgmt Studio, but /not/ remote Mgmt Studio - the optionsare greyed out on a remote client. Is this by design? Is it a SQLSbug?I'm sure I'm not the only SQLS DBA who does not have Admin rights on hisserver who wants to start/stop services. Generally speaking, how isthis intended to work?Any help appreciated.Allen JantzenA freshly minted DQLS DBA
View 1 Replies View RelatedWe have a Prinicipal, a Mirror and a Witness server. We have automatic failover configured between the Prinicipal and Mirrored server. When we stop MMSQL service on Prinicipal, not all the databases failover to the Mirrored instance.
Any suggestions would be welcomed as we have a tight deadline to get this in Production.
I've heard that NT Service Pack 5 conflicts with SQL 7.
Hence, I'm staying at SP4 on my SQL Servers.
Does anybody know about SQL 7 Clients? Do they

Hi All,
I think I need someone to look over my issues with installing the Reporting service. So, if anyyou could take a look at this would be much appreciated.
In the Configured Report Server window for the Database setup, I get green lights in the Task Status but, a yellow triangle status telling me that €œalthough saving the database connection succeeded, the report server can not access internal information€? and €œ If you are configuring a scale-out deployment, this feature is not supported by this edition. To continue use another report server database or remove the encryption keys from the current database before initializing the report server€?. Any ideas on how to solve this? Thanks

Yesterday my SQL Server 7 installation rebooted itself and the error log seemed fine as did the restart. The only evidence I can find was a message in the event viewer's application log stating the the MSSQLServer service terminated unexpectedly. Any ideas are appreciated.

I've a SQL server that intermittently restarts itself mostly during. Its a SQL Server 6.5 SP4 running NT 4.0 SP6. It really has no rhyme or reason to it happening. The are no indications in either the SQL or the Nt events logs.
Has anyone heard of this?

Hi,
I have a linked server set up to a proprietarty temporal DB through an OLEDB provider. From time to time and for various reasons the OLEDB provider crashes with "Error 7302 Could not create an instance of OLE DB Provider 'IhOLEDBProvider.iHistorian.1'. OLE DB Trace [Non Interface Error: CoCreate of DSO for IhOLEDBProvider.iHistorian.1 returned 0x80070008"
Up till now, to re-initilize the connection we have just restarted the SQL Server service. However, some automated processes are now feeding data into this server and more users and have started coming online so restarting for this issue has become a big deal.
Getting the OLEDB provider sorted out isn't an option at present so my question is:
Is there a way to re-initalise a failed linked server other that restarting the SQL Service?
Thanks,
Eamon.
Hi,
I have SQL server running on windows Adv Server 2000. Since last couple days whole computer restart every one hours. Only thing I remember doing was to shrink database db size is 200+GB.
How can I fix this problem.
Any help will be highly appreciated?
Thanks.

Hi,
I've got a table with a column that contains the status of available licenses to the user, i.e. they are either in use or are available. If the server goes down, then when it is restarted I need to make sure all the rows in this column describe each license as being available.
So the question is how can I ensure data in a table is, if you like, initialized, each time the server is restarted? Is there a system defined stored proc or trigger than is executed when a server is restarted?
Thanks.
Hi...
i hv a database (sql server 2000) where i got locking on many tables and my application was down.

I did a index rebuild the next time on all indexes and everything was fine.But i cannot relate how locking occured and why it was not after index rebuild.Can anyone shed some light on this or anyone had similar experience... cos i cannot figure out a way on this.
Thanks in advance
Hello:
I am currently work on mssql 6.5. On my workstation, I have mssql 6.5
cient software.
However, I would like to install mssql 7.0 server on my nt workstation
and work with it to become familiar with 7.0. Can I install mssql 7.0
server on my nt workstation? Can mssql 6.5 client coexist with mssql 7.0

I setup Sql agent for autostart with sql server and autorestart if stoped
but after rebooting NT or after stoping SQL server it never starts ,I have to start it manualy
Where to look for problem ?
I have an old application to maintain that uses CDatabase to connect to SQL Server. If SQL Server is stopped and restarted, such as in a cluster failover (i.e. move group), then the CDatabase connection needs to reconnect. It seems that it's not capable of doing this on it's own so I need to check the state some how. Various methods, such as IsOpen, seem to be useless as far as determining if I have a "good" connection.
Any thoughts?
@@servername sometimes returns NULL depending on how you have been messing around with replication and various other settings.
The simple solution offered to fix this is to delete the entries in the system tables and sp_addserver 'servername','local' and then restart the SQL service.
This is fine but what do you do in the situation where the SQL server is a 24/7 production box ? Does anyone know of a method / hack to fix this without stopping the service ?
Thanks
