Thank you for the straight-to-the-point restart instructions. We have to restart the database services quite often on a couple of our systems and your instructions on how to put the restart in a batch file were very helpful. Thanks!

My company server went down with a corrupted harddrive. We reinstalled the backup of the C: drive from an image but now SQL Express 2005 won’t start. I manually tried to start it but it gives an error message “Windows could not start SQL Server (SQLEXPRESS) on Local Computer…….error code 17051″. I looked up this code on the net and it says the evaluation copy has expired. I thought SQL Express was free and it is working until the C: Drive went down. Any ideas on how to proceed?

HI,

What happens when the agent is restarted? I mean, what does it clear, what does it do?
I have an issue of a job, that does not complete – runs indefinitely. But when I restart the agent and then run the job, it completes. Again, if I attempt to run the job, it keeps running. I restart the agent, it completes!
I am curious to know what happened when I restarted the SQL Agent Service, that made it run?

Thank you for this outstanding comment — Using cmd to stop/start a named instance.

It’s really a pain in the [...] to use UI to do such a simple task :)

Thanks again

for starting and stopping remote SQL server, we can use the command -

SC \\servername start mssqlserver
SC \\servername stop mssqlserver

For MSSQL Server agent , use
SC \\servername start sqlserveragent
SC \\servername stop sqlserveragent

Don’t bother running on two lines with this, just do:

net stop mssqlserver && net start mssqlserver

Hi Dave,
I am in need to know one thing that is ther any way for intimation whenever any MSSQl Services stopped some one or server was restarted unexpected and MSSQL Server agent is not started as like when any SQL agent job failed it intimated to defined group by the help of operator.

Do you have any SQL script for above requirement, Please guide me or send me on email ID.

@Amit.

There could be many many reasons for this to happen.

I will list very important solution.

1. Go to Start
2. Go to Run
3. Type Services.msc
4(a). Search for SQL Server service ( if you have SQL Server 2005), double click this service.
4(b). Search for MSSQLServer service ( if you have SQL Server 2000), double click this service.
5. Check for Startup Type , this should not be disabled. This can be Manual or Automatic. If it is disabled, set it to manual, click apply, click Start, if the service starts, thats good, there is no more problem if not then proceed to step 6.
6. On the top of the same box, there is a LogOn Tab, click that tab, click local system, click apply click ok. If Service starts, then you have problem with the account under which Service is running, you should use a valid username and valid password.

Browse on internet for more information,

Should be straight forward.

Hope this helps,
IM.

I have SQL server installed on my person pc. I had stopped the server sometime back . Now when I open the Enterprise manager and starting the server, it is giving failed error. I have tried to start it many times but it says connection failed.

I have tried to give the command(net start mssqlserver) in run but it says service could not be started.

I also tried one more way but that also didn’t work, Here is that :

Create a batch file called RestartSQL.BAT with the following commands in it, and save it on the C:\ drive:

@ECHO OFF
NET STOP SQLSERVERAGENT
NET STOP MSSQLSERVER
NET START MSSQLSERVER
NET START SQLSERVERAGENT

Please help me how can we start this ?

Amit.

If you are using MS Cluster to run MSSQL2005 you should
use the cluster commands to script a stop and start of MSSQLServer. Otherwise the cluster service will think that your service has failed.
I created a cmd/bat file that I schedule to run weekly.

cluster /cluster:CLUSTERNAME group “Group 0″ /offline

cluster /cluster:CLUSTERNAME group “Group 0″ /online

This stops and starts all depdendent services for MSSQL SQL AGENT etc. in the cluster Group 0 in the correct order and keeps the services running on your primary server.
