SQL Server never starts

  • i have been trying the start up procedures, and then tryed to shutdwon the SQL Server from executing this line

    exec xp_cmdshell 'net stop MSSQLSERVER'

    now putting all this together i have created a startup procedure to shutdown sql server as soon as the service starts.

    i know that sql server will never start again, but i thought that i can fix this some how, but i couldnt.

    hahaha

    do u have some thing to do the job????????

    and if any one with sysadmin role want to kill the system, in this way its very easy...

  • Write a NET.BAT file like this:

    ECHO Hi!

    And put it in the default directory of your xp_CmdShell command.

  • my goal is to try create this case and try to get out of it cos if any one did it to the server u have to know what to do.

    create proc test

    as exec xp_cmdshell 'net stop MSSQLSERVER'

    then mark the procedure as a startup one.

    when the SQL Server shuts down it will never startup again.

  • exec xp_cmdshell 'cd' --> this will return the current directory

    exec xp_cmdshell 'echo %PATH% --> will return the current path information
