SQL Agent not starting

  • I used the following command from command prompt to start the agent :

    C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL10_50.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQL\Binn>sqlagent.exe

    -c -v>c:\sqlagent.out

    and here is the output of the log file generated:

    It does not let me run this CU. I have repaired the shared features in SQL installation through repair wizard. I have rebooted it and will try applying the CU again.

    Thanks

  • what events do you see in the application event log when trying to start the agent service normally
