Which log are those from? System or Application? If those are from the System log, look to see if there is one in the Application log which is more useful. ----- Original Message ---- From: Dusty Hale <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [email protected] Sent: Monday, September 24, 2007 1:29:56 PM Subject: RE: [ACFUG Discuss] OT SQL service will not start Shawn every time I try to start it, I get two messages in the event viewer: The MSSQLSERVER service was successfully sent a start control.

The service basically just will not start. Not sure why but I am trying to research why it might be happening and if anyone has a quick idea why it might be happening, please share.
