we have SQL Server 2005 Engine that worked fine but yesterday SQL Agent was stopped. The error is (from event viewer):

SQLServerAgent could not be started (reason: Unable to connect to server '(local)'; SQLServerAgent cannot start).
Source : SQLSERVERAGENT

we change the user account to local user and grant access as administrator. but we still have the same error.

if someone suggest me a valuable information, i woul be very happy.

thank you

hi

Go into the "Services" of the server and reset the account information there. Be sure you have the correct password.

Settings/Control Panel/Administrative Tools/Services - then right click both and make sure they are set right.
