Hi,

We are getting following error when starting SQL Server agent:
2009-01-29 22:36:29 - ! [298] SQLServer Error: 21, Encryption not supported on the client. [SQLSTATE 08001]
2009-01-29 22:36:29 - ! [298] SQLServer Error: 21, Client unable to establish connection [SQLSTATE 08001]
2009-01-29 22:36:29 - ! [165] ODBC Error: 0, An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. [SQLSTATE 08001]

2009-01-29 22:36:29 - ! [382] Logon to server ‘Test\Inst1’ failed (DisableAgentXPs)
2009-01-29 22:36:29 - ? [098] SQLServerAgent terminated (normally)

SELECT SERVERPROPERTY('productversion'), SERVERPROPERTY ('productlevel'), SERVERPROPERTY ('edition')
9.00.3042.00 SP2 Standard Edition

This is non-cluster server but we are using named instance test\inst1.

TCP/IP,Named pipe and Shared memory network protocols are enabled. Somehow I don’t see any protocol under “client protocols”. Also if I disable the shared memory I can’t connect to SQL Server instance. I modified serverhost entry in registry but didn’t helped.

How to fix this SQL Server agent startup issue?

Thanks

Do you mean your list under sql server native client configuration -> client protocols in sql server configuration manager?

SQLServer Error: 21, Encryption not supported on the client. [SQLSTATE 08001] makes me think that sql server requires encryption. try to turn it off
