replication issue (log reader agent is not running)

  • We have upgrade the SQL server from 2000 to 2005. After upgrade the replication is not working with the following symptoms:

    1. Subscription status always show 'Not running, performance critical'.

    2. When I try to re-sychronize with option "Start Synchronziing" , error is encounter as below :

    Replication montior could not start the job '..................'

    Additional informtion :

    SQL server Agent error : request to run job STX-T01-STL_NEwCC

    (from User sa) refused because the job is already running from a request by User sa. (Microsoft SQL Server , Error: 22022)

    Anyone could kindly help ?

    Or any idea to further troubleshoot this issue ?

    Thanks and best regards,

  • I have seen this a ton. I actually created a a report in reporting services to identify these agents. I do not trust replication monitor. If you actually go to the subscription in replication monitor that is not running and go to tools--> and then click stop sync and then at that point you can start it again. I think this is a bug, but i have seen this several times.

  • I also forgot to add with the log reader i have also seen this if for some reason depending on the upgrade or setup if you have multiple jobs running. For example, the old log-reader for db abc and then a new one is created but the old one isn't over-written or deleted. That is another way to see this message.

    If you still can't figure it out, I would suggest putting the verbose flag on with the option 3 to capture the problem.

  • this problem has been solved. Thanks.
