SQL Server Service won't start on SQL Server 2008

Hi everyone,
I'm having trouble starting SQL Server service after stopping and starting the service. Before this happened, I created a Stored Procedure for marking all tables at once along with a maintenance plan for differential backup on all my databases based on the
recommendation from this link, http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms253070.aspx.
When I realized that the differential backup failed with some databases displaying (Restoring...) post-fix to the database name, I decided to stop SQL Server service and start it up. That is when I won't be able to start the service again.
Is there a fix for starting the SQL Server service? Any help is very much appreciated.
Additional information:
- With administrator permission granted.
- Service Pack 1 for SQL Server 2008 installed.
- Using default database instance.
- Tried C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.....\Binn>net start MSSQLSERVER /T3608 ( return msg: System error 5 has occurred. Access is denied.
- When I start SQL Server service, I keep getting this dialog msg:
"Windowns could not start the SQL Server (MSSQLSERVER) on Local Computer. For more information, review the System Event Log. If this is a non-Microsoft service, contact the service vendor, and refer to service-specific error code 1814."
The event log does not explain or provide any hint on how to fix the problem.

Agent service won't start on Windows server

Having bounced the Windows 2003 server (64 bit) the instance and listener started up automatically as set in the "services" but the Agent (which WAS running fine)would not start automatically so I tried to manuall start it in the services...a pop up message states it could not start service and to look in event log for details...
find this in event log:
The description for Event ID ( 4 ) in Source ( Oracleagent10gAgent ) cannot be found. The local computer may not have the necessary registry information or message DLL files to display messages from a remote computer.

Any ideas? Is there something simple to do or should I try re-install the agent?

Man, I just love to ask questions then answer them myself:-)
The reason for all this was the recent change to daylight savings time here!
The agent (10.2.0.2) will keep running just fine until the server is bounced then it won't start until you apply patch (5884103)...thanks Mike at Metalink!

Error 1069 - Server Service won't start

I'm getting the following erro message when I try to start Central Pro Server:
Could not start the Adobe Central Output Server Service on local computer.
Error 1069 The Service did not start due to logon failure.
I checked the services and it won't allow me to start this manually... any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

From the text error as well as the inability to manually start the server I'd suspect that the user-id or password defined on the Log On tab is incorrect. If you are on a Windows network don't forget that if you are using a Domain user-id that the domain name has to be included (DOMAIN\user-id).

WDS Server Service won't start - 'An error occurred trying to start the Windows Deployment Services Server.'

I'm having issues installing starting the WDS server service on Win 2008 R2, this is happening on multiple (all 2008 R2) systems on this domain so I'm beginning to think it's either AD or network related, in event viewer I get the following error.
'An error occurred trying to start the Windows Deployment Services Server.'
Error Information: 0x0906
EventID : 257
single domain, single forest, 2008 R2 functional level, both system are virtual plugged into same vswitch on a flat network.
any ideas what might be the issue? I've never had an issue getting this working on many occasions before today and I've come to many a dead end looking at other articles thus far...

It seems I've found out the solution myself, the issue seems to be caused when DHCP and WDS are on the same server, The installation must identify this during the first installation of WDS but not on subsequent installations, the method to
get it working again is:
1.
Install WDS Role (using defaults)
2.
Make the following registry change:
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\WDSServer\Providers\WDSPXE\UseDhcpPorts = 0
3.
Run the following command line to initialize Windows Deployment Services:
wdsutil /initialize-server /reminst:D:\RemoteInstall
4.
Run the following command to enable the DHCP port registry setting
wdsutil /Set-Server /UseDHCPPorts:No /DHCPOption60:Yes

TNS Listener Service won't start after upgrading server from NT to 2000

I am new to Oracle and have worked my way through downloading and installing Oracle Enterprise Edition on an NT 4.0 SP6a server and I believe the installation was successful--I was able to run the Oracle Enterprise Manager successfully and I browsed the Oracle services in NT and they all appeared to be working.
I upgraded NT to Windows 2000 Server and Service Pack 2 yesterday and after that I am unable to run Oracle Enterprise Manager and have noticed that the TNS Listener will not start. Actually it starts and immediately stops. It does not cause any messages in the Event Viewer.
Any help on how to proceed would be very gratefully received.
I am a database administrator with a school district and are evaluating/comparing Oracle vs. SQL Server 2000 for creating a data warehouse.
Thanks!

Srinivasa and Allen,
Thank you very much for your replies. I tried the lsnrctl show connect_timeout command and got a message that connect_timeout was an invalid parameter. Is that true of 9i? However, I used the help show command and tried some of the other parameters and the error messages said something about not being able to locate the host. At that point I recalled that at the same time I was upgrading the server to Windows 2000 I also changed the name of the server from MISNT to just MIS.
At that point I renamed the server back to MISNT and after rebooting, the TNS listener works fine. I do want to change the server name back to MIS. It appears there is a configuration file somewhere that has the host name in it that I will need to change. It makes me wonder if there are any other places where I am going to need to change this before I'm done. Will I be better off to just completely uninstall Oracle, change the server name and then reinstall?
Thanks!
Rick

Automatically start SQL Agent service after SQL Server service fails and starts.

Hi!
I have SQL Server 2008 R2 with two main services - SQL Server and SQL Agent.
I'll try to describe my situation. It happens very occasionally, but sometimes SQL Server service terminates unexpectedly. It's my log:
09/13/2013 10:46:21,Service Control Manager,Error,The SQL Server (MSSQLSERVER) service terminated unexpectedly. It has done this 1 time(s). The following corrective action will be taken in 120000 milliseconds: Restart the service.

09/13/2013 10:46:22,MSSQLSERVER,Error,The MSSQLSERVER service terminated unexpectedly.,Server,1073760843,,

09/13/2013 10:46:27,,Warning,[139] AutoRestart: Attempting to restart the MSSQLSERVER service (attempt #2)...,,,,

09/13/2013 10:46:32,,Warning,[360] SQLServerAgent initiating shutdown following MSSQLSERVER shutdown,,,,
As you can see, SQL Server service terminates unexpectedly. Then SQL Agent service tries to start SQL Server service. After unsuccessfully attempts to start SQL Server service, SQL Agent service stops itself. I have the option setting in SQL Server
service to start itself after unexpectedly stop within 2 minutes and it is works well. But I have to start my SQL Agent service after this manually. Unfortunately, I can't investigate the reason of my SQL Server stops unexpectedly and in this case I just want
to make the settings to start both of my services SQL Server and SQL Agent automatically after this. How can I set up this? How can I make my SQL Agent service starts after SQL Server service?

Hello,
SQL server agent service depends on SQL server service so unless SQL server service comes online agent will not come online so agent is depended on SQL server not the other wise.
Now is your server 2008 R2 patched to latest service pack (SP2).If not please upgrade it to latest SP.Some fixes are there in Sp which will subside this issue.Can you paste output of
select @@version
>>Then SQL Agent service tries to start SQL Server service.No this is not the case
>>Unfortunately, I can't investigate the reason of my SQL Server stops unexpectedly
Did you checked sql server errorlog and windows event log completely.Please do so and paste if you find some more info

SQL Server service not automatically starting (logon failure)

I just installed SQL Server 2012 on a machine. To run "SQL Server" as well as "SQL Server Agent" service I have created a domain account called SQLADMIN. This account is a service account and has no other rights like logon locally or
local administrator.
When the machine restarts, "SQL Server" service doesn't start automatically. When I click Start then it says "Logon Failure". Now if I simply enter the password again under tab "Log On" and then start service then it starts. Why
doesn't it start automatically?

Hello,
Please read the following article about permissions required by service accounts.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms143504(v=sql.110).aspx#Serv_Perm
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Alberto Morillo

I do not see any special permission that is needed as per the article. For e.g. as per below:
SQL Server Service
Permissions granted by SQL Server Setup
SQL Server Database Engine:
(All rights are granted to the per-service SID. Default instance: NT SERVICE\MSSQLSERVER. Named instance: NT SERVICE\MSSQL$InstanceName.)
Log on as a service (SeServiceLogonRight)
Replace a process-level token(SeAssignPrimaryTokenPrivilege)
Bypass traverse checking (SeChangeNotifyPrivilege)
Adjust memory quotas for a process(SeIncreaseQuotaPrivilege)
Permission to start SQL Writer
Permission to read the Event Log service
Permission to read the Remote Procedure Call service
I am running Database Engine service as DOMAIN\SQLADMIN account which can Log On As A Service. Other 3 permissions mentioned in article are not given so let me assign it and then see how it goes.
Could this issue be due to some domain policy? Because there is another SQL Server machine which shows same behaviour.

Assign "Log on as a service" to the service account on this computer. You can use Local Security Settings (Secpol.msc) to do this.
If this computer is a node in a cluster, check that this user right is assigned to the Cluster service account on all nodes in the cluster.
If you have already assigned this user right to the service account, and the user right appears to be removed,
check with your domain administrator to find out if a Group Policy object associated with this node might be removing the right.

Microsoft Forefront Server Protection Eventing Service won't start?

Hi Guys,
When Forefront Protection for Exchange was integrated/enabled on our SBS 2008 server, Microsoft Forefront Server Protection Eventing Service won’t start. Even when we try to start it manually we are getting this message (see attached). During this attempt,
we got these events in the event viewer. In this case, in order to have our email working, we have to temporarily disable Forefront. Any suggestion how to fix this? Please advise.

Password service won't start

Following an unplanned hard restart of our server (Mac OS X 10.9.5, Server 3.2.2), the password service won't start, so our staff can't log into mail, calendars or file sharing.
When I launch Open Directory, the main window has the message "Unable to load replica list", then it switches itself off after a minute or so.
I've looked at the certificates in Server and they have the green tick so presumably are OK.
DNS is working OK and running the command "sudo changeip -checkhostname" reports success.
Here's the section of log that repeats every few seconds as PasswordService repeatedly starts up and exits:

I have backups (both Time Machine and clones of the hard drive) that I could use to restore the corrupted bit of the configuration, if necessary, but I don't know what to restore.

Many Open Directory problems can be resolved by taking the following steps. Test after each one, and back up all data before making any changes.
1. The OD master must have a static IP address on the local network, not a dynamic address. It must not be connected to the same network with more than one interface; e.g., Ethernet and Wi-Fi.
2. You must have a working DNS service, and the server's hostname must match its fully-qualified domain name. To confirm, select the server by name in the sidebar of the Server application window, then select the Overview tab. Click the Edit button on the Host Name line. On the Accessing your Server sheet, Domain Name should be selected. Change the Host Name, if necessary. The server must have at least a three-level name (e.g. "server.yourdomain.com"), and the name must not be in the ".local" top-level domain, which is reserved for Bonjour.
3. The primary DNS server used by the server must be itself, unless you're using another server for internal DNS. The only DNS server set on the clients should be the internal one, which they should get from DHCP if applicable.
4. If you have accounts with network home directories, make sure the URL's are correct in the user settings. A return status of 45 from the authorizationhost daemon in the log may mean that the URL for mounting the home directory was not updated after a change in the hostname.
5. Only if you're still running Mavericks server, follow these instructions to rebuild the Kerberos configuration on the server.
6. If you use authenticated binding, check the validity of the master's certificate. The common name must match the hostname and domain name. Deselecting and then reselecting the certificate in Server.app has been reported to have an effect in some cases. Otherwise delete all certificates and create new ones.
7. Unbind and then rebind the clients in the Users & Groups preference pane. Use the fully-qualified domain name of the master.
8. Reboot the master and the clients.
9. Don't log in to the server with a network user's account.
10. Disable any internal firewalls in use, including third-party "security" software.
11. If you've created any replica servers, delete them.
12. If OD has only recently stopped working when it was working before, you may be able to restore it from the automatic backup in /var/db/backups, or from a Time Machine snapshot of that backup.
13. As a last resort, export all OD users. In the Open Directory pane of Server, delete the OD server. Then recreate it and import the users. Ensure that the UID's are in the 1001+ range.
If you get this far without solving the problem, then you'll need to examine the logs in the Open Directory section of the log list in the Server app, and also the system log on the clients.

CF8 Application Server Service Will NOT Start

I ran into this error:
java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space
and after researching it it seemed that I should up the max heap size on the Java/JVM page, so I increased my max heap size to 1044MB from 512, via the CF Administrator, I also added maxPermSize= 256m. Then I restarted the server, but the Application Server service will not start.
I opened home/runtim/bin/jvm.config and set the heap size to 1024, restart, service still wont start.
Set the max heap size to 512 and removed maxPermSize, restarted server, service still won't start.
Set the entire java.args equal to: -server -Xmx256m -Dsun.io.useCanonCaches=false -xx:MaxPermsize=128m -XX:+UseParallelGC -Dcoldfusion.rootDir={application.home}/../ -Dcoldfusion.libPath={application.home}/../lib -Dcoldfusion.classPath={application.home}/../lib/updates,{application.home}/../lib,{appli cation.home}/../gateway/lib/,{application.home}/../wwwroot/WEB-INF/flex/jars,{application. home}/../wwwroot/WEB-INF/cfform/jars
Restarted, still the services will not start.
Does anyone have any ideas?
The error I get when trying to start the services is:
Windows could not start the ColdFusion 8 Application Server on Local Computer. For more information, review the System Even Log. If this is a non-Microsoft service, contact the service vendor, and refore to service-specific error code 2.
Thanks!

Once you have ColdFusion running again this will bring you back to your initial problem:
java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space
Suggest take a copy of your working JVM.CONFIG (so you have a backup) then add some debugging to the JVM Arguments eg:
# Arguments to VM
java.args=-server -Xmx512m -Dsun.io.useCanonCaches=false -XX:MaxPermSize=192m -XX:+UseParallelGC -XX:+PrintGCDetails -XX:+PrintGCTimeStamps -XX:+PrintHeapAtGC -verbose:gc -Xloggc:cfjvmGC.log -Dcoldfusion.rootDir={application.home}/../ -Dcoldfusion.libPath={application.home}/../lib -Dcoldfusion.classPath={application.home}/../lib/updates,{application.home}/../lib,{appli cation.home}/../gateway/lib/,{application.home}/../wwwroot/WEB-INF/flex/jars,{application. home}/../wwwroot/WEB-INF/cfform/jars
Once ColdFusion is restarted again a log file will be created called \ColdFusion8\runtime\bin\cfjvmgc.log. Open the log file and you will be able to see how the New, Tenure and Permanent memory spaces are working. Given you now know which buffer is filling (excluding New made up of Eden and a couple Survivor spaces - because those fill and empty all the time) you can make adjustments to JVM.CONFIG knowing which value you intend to alter. Likely you want to alter either Xmx or MaxPermSize. When you think the Java heap space is resolved turn logging off by removing the bolded details.
HTH, Carl.

!! And now transport service won't start and mail is unavailable !!
Any help would be appreciated.
I have removed the ecp site from default site and attempting to rerun SP1 now. I do not have high hopes. :(

Hi,
Thanks for your response.
From the error description, you need to manually remove the ECP with IIS manager in both the Default Web Site and the Exchange Back End firstly. And then continue the upgrade to check the result.
Hope this can be helpful to you.
