Not able to start SQL Agent Service

  • Hi,

    We came across a biggg issue with SQL Agent service on one of our SQL Server 2012 production servers. Suddenly, it stopped working. So we just thought of disabling and enabling the service, but once we disabled and try to set automatic (before starting it), gives us error message "The Remote Procedure Call Failed [0x800706be]".

    We are working at our best to start the service, however please give me a solution to start the jobs, as it is critical production server.

  • Are you attempting to start the service via the SQL Server Configuration Manager? If so, try doing it from the services applet in the control panel and see if it fails there as well. My hunch is you'll be able to start it, and change the start up type from there.

    Curious, what version of SQL Server?

    Also check your windows event log for any errors...
