SQl services problem...

  • I have SQL Server 2005  running on Win 2003. Whenever I use the SQL Service manager to start the service it starts then automatically stops.

    When I try to do the same thing through the control panel services manager I get a message saying that the service started then stopped and that this happens for some services when they have no work to do.

    Any ideas?

  • Do you have service packs installed. If not trying going for SP2 and start your service and check if its ok.

  • Try using local system and see if it starts. Most of the time, the authentication or level of access for the account you are using is incorrect.

    HTH,

  • BTW, are you on a clustered environment?

  • Any check on the antivirus which could block the service to run?Did you disallowed your antivirus to scan the data files by the way?
