Maintenance Plans Failing

  • Hi to all. I have moved our ERP system to a new platform (from Windows 2003/sql 2005 to Windows 2012/SQL 2014). The new server resides in a different domain. I created from scratch identical maintenance plans. Both the database and transaction log jobs are failing. Transaction log example below.

    Server application logs record events 3041, 12291 and 208.

    Has anyone else come across this?

    Thanks,

    Phil.

  • Manual backups also fail. A crash dump is created. I stumbled across this thread http://www.sqlservercentral.com/Forums/Topic1588898-3411-2.aspx. My issue appears similar. I am running 2014 RTM (no CU). I have reviewed the CU's and none of them provide a fix for the issue I am facing.

  • What does a manual backup fail with?

  • A server re-boot appears to have resolved the issue. I am now able to execute backups and maintenance plans appear to run OK.

    Prior to the reboot I noted when running the maintenance plan the directory's would be created in the disk backup target. If I tried to access the directory Windows displayed message stating I needed admin permissions (I am an admin). I ran gpedit.msc on local machine and disabled 'User Account Control: Run all administrators in Admin Approval Mode'. I am not sure if this fixed the issue or the reboot. I will reverse and test.

  • Weird.

    That's one of the more useless error messages I've seen SQL return too. Nothing more useful in the error log?

  • Hi. I have checked the logs and found the entry below for one of the failures:

    2015-02-09 16:59:17.18 spid69 * BEGIN STACK DUMP:

    There is then a load of stack dump information.

    Thanks for your time, very much appreciated.

    Phil.
