The Database Mail Profile that is used for the SQL server agent need to be a member of DatabaseMailUserRole in the msdb database.

You are right. I might have missed this point in the article - the problem here is the job worked fine when run on other databases (master,msdb etc.,) but failed only when run on user database. That's the reason it took a bit of time to narrow down the issue.

If your service account didn't have the permissions to access your database, wouldn't other jobs be failing as well? Or is this the only time you access this specific DB?

I was setting up a new server and this was the only job accessing the user database at that point of time. When I was making sure all the setup was done properly, I encountered this issue.

Thanks,

I am having a new issue that is similar. However, mine appears to be unrelated to SQLAgent. My query fails when executing in SSMS. This is on a two instance install of SQL 2014, with the query working fine on Instance 1 but failing on Instance 2 . I have confirmed this on a separate dual instance installation of SQL 2014. I get "Failed to initialize sqlcmd library with error number -2147024809".

Thoughts?

Are both the servers running on same service account? Could you please paste the query that is giving this error?

Thanks!

The MSSQL certification exams spend a huge amount of time explaining NUMA nodes, but they don't mention THIS! Thank you for pointing this out.
