UCE agent not running

We have two identically configured servers.
On one server, the UCE agent is running fine, on the other server, it's not possible to make it running.
All network specific configurations are identical on both machines.
The agent process is exiting with the following messages:
- in /opt/SUNWuce/agent/logs/uce_agent.log:
##### uce_agent exit on error <1>, try again in 90 sec. #####
Fri Nov 2 09:28:02 CET 2007
- in /opt/SUNWuce/agent/logs/error.log:
2797:2007-11-02_08:28:02 SEVERE [ uce.agent.app: ../src/AgentApp.cc: #1491 ] 0 Can't send logout message. Exiting immediately.
2797:2007-11-02_08:28:02 SEVERE [ default_logger: source_unavailable: #0 ] 268699392 HTTP server request: Cannot resolve host. Exiting.
What's the matter there? Does anybody know?
Greetings!

Can you check that the problematic agent can resolve the server configured.
*$* +nslookup `grep distrizor_host /opt/SUNWuce/agent/bin/.uce.rc | awk '{ print $6}' | sed s/\"//g`+
*$* +nslookup `grep server_name /opt/SUNWuce/agent/bin/.uce.rc | awk '{ print $6}' | sed s/\"//g`+
The two values are normally the same unless a proxy is configured.

Intelligent agent not running

Hi all,
i had database of 9.2.0.1 on windows xp. i am trying to configure EM using OMS. while discovering nodes i am getting error saying intelligent agent not running.
i tried to start that using "agentctl start" but its saying "could not able to contact agent". when i checked in google its saying to have a snmpagent role should be there in dba_roles which i dont have. i even dont have dbsnmp user, for that i executed catsnmp.sql script. now i am having user but no role.
also when i tried to start the service of agent from services of control panel its saying "service is started and stopped on local computer some services will stop automatically if they had no work to do"
what i need to do for getting my agent started and making discovering of nodes?
Thanks in advance for the help

Distribution agent not running

Hello All,
One distribution agent is not running continuously. The SQL job is scheduled to run when 'Start automatically when SQL Server Agent starts'. It was running fine but now the status in replication
monitor shows Not running. I manually selected Start Synchronizing and it runs just for a few seconds and replicates transations but then goes back to Not Running status.
Can someone please help me?
Thanks,

Add the -Continuous parameter to the end of your job step if it is not already there.
Then start your agent.

I just installed two databases on the same server. The one's EM is running fime no prob. The other, the EM doesn't want to open completely it says: Enterprise Manager is not able to connect to the database instance. The state of the components are listed below.
And the database is open, I can run sql queries against the DB, but EM says it's down, the listener is up and the Agent connectio to database is down?
Have anyone ever encounterd this?

This is wierd there is nothing in the logs and when I status the agent in sqlplus:

ARD Agent not running on Snow Leopard

Hi. One of my servers which usually I could connect to remotely by ARD has stopped responding to ARD or VNC. it just shows up as an IP Address in the ARD Admin. I looked at processes on the server and ARDAGENT is not running. Tried reinstalling ARD client, removing ARD preferences files. Cant seem to sort it. Its a working server so cant just reinstall system on it.

We experienced the same issue on an XServe after upgrading to 10.6.6 form 10.6.5. Weeks of searching the Internet turned up nothing, except other users experiencing the same problem. Finally got it working again by doing the following:
1) Turn off Remote Management in System Preferences
2) Remove /System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/MacOS/ARDAg ent
3) Re-Install Remote Desktop Client from the Apple Installer here: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1350
4) Enable Remote Management in System Preferences
5) Reboot
Step 5 probably is not required, but I wanted to make sure the service would run without intervention. I had some success before with running ARDAgent from the command line over ssh to get Remote Desktop working, but it really wasn't a good solution.
Good luck, hope this helps.

Launch agent not running correctly in Yosemite

I have a launch Agent that up until upgrading to Yosemite worked fine. Now it will not correctly run the script that it attempts to run.
It would be great to get these folder actions up and running again.
This is what I found so far:-
The script works fine when run manually.
Checking Terminal I can see that the launchAgent is loaded, but then looking into the Console I see this message

I believe EnableGlobbing in the plist file is no longer supported in 10.10 (at least it wasn't when 10.10 was first released, not sure if it was put back)
Try making the two paths in the plist file absolute, that is remove the ~ (tide) and add the complete path and see if that clears the problem.
ie.
change
<string>~/Desktop/HotFolder</string>
and
<string>~/WorkFlow/Folder Actions/1_EAN2SKU.scpt</string>
to
<string>/Users/yourname/Desktop/HotFolder</string>
and
<string>/Users/yourname/WorkFlow/Folder Actions/1_EAN2SKU.scpt</string>

SQL Agent not running Script in Package which calls an Excel containing Macro

I have a script task in SSIS package which calls Excel VBA file containing Macro, this file is on the local drive, when I run this package through SSDT the package works ok and the macro does what it needs to. However when I set up a
sql agent job to call the package then it fails at the Script task. I have created a credentials and proxy user as my self so I should Have full rights.
But it fails through the job and not through SSDT, can you advise ?

Hi Asad,
Since the error message “Script Task Run Excel: Error: Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation” is too generic, we should find a way to return full error details from SQL Server Agent job. Firstly, configure logging for the steps you wish
to keep log data for. Secondly, create a stored procedure to return details of the step at which a job failed based on the job name. Finally, execute the stored procedure. For more details, please refer to the following blog:
http://www.sqlservercentral.com/articles/SQL+Server+Agent/67726/
In addition, the following similar two threads are for your references:

SQL server agent job running as Agent Service Account whose service account does not have r/w access but is still able to write?

Hi. I am newer to SQL server security and am reviewing some of our SQL server's configuration to make sure the services are running under accounts with least privilege. I have a SQL server 2012 instance whose Agent service is configured to run
under an AD user account named 'SQLServices'. The jobs on this server are configured to run as 'SQL server agent service account', which means they should execute as user 'SQLServices'. The jobs are set up to execute SSIS packages which read and
write to a database on the same server where the agent job is scheduled and SSIS package installed (all on same server). The jobs are currently executing without error and are reading writing data correctly. Upon close examination, it turns out the
SQLServices account is not assigned to the 'sysadmin' role and had no users mapped to any databases on this server. How are these jobs working? I verified in profiler that the login name indeed is 'SqlServices'. I also verified
that SQLServices login has no database access by remote-ing onto the server and trying to log into the DB, and access was denied as expected. According to the literature, the Agent service needs to be a member of 'sysadmin role' but I am reading
some cases where that is not necessarily the case. So this is not so concerning. What is concerning is that the login 'SQLServices' had no access to the databases on that server yet it is reading and writing to the databases as if it does.
The only thing I can think of is maybe jobs run as 'SQL server agent service account' on the same server as the databases it r/w to somehow has some kind of default access. What am I missing here? Any input would be helpful.

After 2 days on this forum I found the answer to my own question. In retrospect, I should have posted this under 'SQL Server Security', but I didn't know it existed.
The 2 threads below explain that Sql agent actually runs using SID (service) NT SERVICE\SQLSERVERAGENT if you chose that when you installed. This will automatically create an associated login NT SERVICE\SQLSERVERAGENT in SQL server with sqladmin
role. This is the login that Agent uses to connect to the local instance of SQL server. If you changed to domain account to run the service during install or after using config manager, basically NT SERVICE\SQLSERVERAGENT is still
used to connect to your local instance behind the scenes (even though you will still see your domain user as account), and the domain account is used to reach outside the server.

Report Subscription by email error - The SQL Agent service is not running

Hello All,
This may be an easy answer, so please excuse my ignorance if I am overlooking something simple. I a simply trying to setup Report Subscriptions to be emailed to me. We currently have essentially 3 servers in use in our environment - a CAS, a Site server
and a SQL 2012.
I have configured the email settings in Reporting Services Configuration Manager on the Site server and was finally able to see the email option in the Create Subscription Wizard, but it errors out with:
System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException: The SQL Agent service is not running. This operation requires the SQL Agent service. ---> Microsoft.ReportingServices.Diagnostics.Utilities.SchedulerNotRespondingException: The SQL Agent service is not running.
This operation requires the SQL Agent service. at Microsoft.ReportingServices.Library.ReportingService2005Impl.CreateSubscription(String Report, ExtensionSettings ExtensionSettings, Boolean isDataDriven, DataRetrievalPlan DataRetrievalPlan, String
Description, String EventType, String MatchData, ParameterValueOrFieldReference[] Parameters, Guid batchId, String& SubscriptionID) at Microsoft.ReportingServices.WebServer.ReportingService2005.CreateSubscription(String Report, ExtensionSettings
ExtensionSettings, String Description, String EventType, String MatchData, ParameterValue[] Parameters, String& SubscriptionID)
We do not have SQL installed locally, therefore it makes sense that the Agent service is not running. How do I subscribe to alerts in SCCM without a local installation of SQL?

I am positive - see screenshots below of services on the SQL server:
Yes, reports work perfectly otherwise... Just cannot subscribe.

solved. was a firefox addon called 1password
solved by deleting the desktop version of hte app and reinstalling
1password support was useless. didnt even know a piece of their own software. suggested it was a ffox profile issue. red herring.

I'm not sure but since it's saying there's a library issue, you could try running:
# ldconfig
Failing that you could try a:
# pacman -Rns slim
# pacman -Syu slim
I tried both "ldconfig" and "pacman -XXX", but the problem is still there.
Maybe I need use another way to recompile slim in my machine.
But I have no time to test it now, I will try it another day.
Thx for replies.

Event 701 - The Application Impact Telemetry (AIT) Agent is not running because AIT is disabled.

In a survey of several Windows 7 systems, in the Application-Experience Program-Telemetry log, I found daily instances of Information Event 701 "The Application Impact Telemetry (AIT) Agent is not running because AIT is disabled". The trigger
for this event is execution of the built-in scheduled task to run Aitagent.exe daily at 02:30.
The message "AIT is disabled" is puzzling to me.
I checked participation in the Customer Experience Improvement Program (CEIP) on the idea that a setting to disable participation could translate into "AIT is disabled", but CEIP is set to Yes (participate).
I checked Windows Error Reporting settings - they are set to "Automatically check for solutions and send additional report data, if needed"
I checked the REG_DWORD value AITEnable in HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\AppCompatFlags\AIT is set to 0x1, which should indicate that AIT is enabled.
I would appreciate if anyone can explain where/how AIT is disabled.
Thanks

Arthur Xie-
Thank you for suggesting installing the
Microsoft Application Compatibility Toolkit 5.6 (ACT). This is quite an enterprise-level program (the Step-by-Step guide says "We
recommend that you collect your data from approximately 10,000
computers")!
Anyway, installing the ACT and sending an empty data set to Microsoft worked, but did not eliminate Event 701 when the scheduled task to run AitAgent.exe executed
(as scheduled or manually) or when AitAgent.exe was run from an Administrator command prompt.
Since the scheduled task to run AitAgent.exe is part of a out-of-box installation of Windows 7, and its description states "Aggregates and uploads Application Telemetry
information if opted-in to the Microsoft Customer Experience Improvement Program", it would seem that it would run without error, at least when participation in the CEIP is enabled.
