Maintenance Plans error! Cant delete

  • Hi,

    I have a sql box with 2 maintenance plans that wont delete. They point to a db that is no longer there. And it says that Local Server Connection is not found.

    Full error when i tried to delete is:

    TITLE: Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio

    ------------------------------

    Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation. (mscorlib)

    ------------------------------

    ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:

    The connection "Local server connection" is not found. This error is thrown by Connections collection when the specific connection element is not found.

    Any idea how i rid this evil beast? I tried opening the plan changing it to point to a DB that does exist. and creating a new connection. Then deleting but im getting the same error message.

    Thanks

  • There are files related to the Maintenance Plan in the msdb database, more than likely logs.

    You will need to delete the appropriate entry from the sysmaintplan_log related to the job id associated with the maintenance plan.
