SQL Agent Not Starting
Feb 12, 2002The 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.

SQL Agent Not Starting At All
Mar 28, 2007I 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.

SQL Agent Not Starting Properly
Sep 28, 1999We 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?
View 1 Replies View RelatedSQL 7 Cluster - Starting SQL Agent
Sep 18, 2002How 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!

Starting Sql Server Agent Sql 2005
May 4, 2007I 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??
Access Denied Starting SQL Server Agent
Mar 5, 2007I'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...
Delay Starting SSIS Package Via SQL Agent
Feb 20, 2008Hi
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
Delay In Package Starting When Running From SQL Agent
Jul 19, 2006Hi,
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

Apr 5, 2006Hi All,
I need a help here please.
I have a sql server 2000 running on windows server 2003. I run the services (MSSQLSERVER,SQLSERVERAGENT) under a local user which has no admin right. This local user named "sqlsvr".
The configuration that i used to make the "sqlsvr" able to run the services is in this web address :
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;Q283811
After im able to run the services under "sqlsvr". I added also permission "Impersonate client after authentication" on security policy for "sqlsvr" in order to make the clients able to connect to sqlserver through ODBC with "windows authentication" mode.
But the problem is, after i finished these configuration, i cannot make the SQLSVRAGENT run. And it shows an error message :
"SQLServerAgent started then stopped. Some services stop automatically if they have no work to do for example Performance Logs and Alert Service" and stops there. Then what we have to do is use the start to startup the service....€?
Please help
note : I must run the services under "sqlsvr" in order to comply with the security standard on my office.
Thank you very much

SQL Agent Jobs And Permissions
Jul 25, 2002I have several users that are a member
of a Windows Nt group. I want to be
able to allow this group to create,
update, and delete SQL Agent Jobs.
But I do not want them to be members
of the SYSADMIN role.
Everything that I have found states
that they must be members of this
server role to perform these actions.
Does anyone have an idea on how to
accomplish this? or point me in some
kind of direction to explore.
