Error 1068

Dear friends hi,
I read the articles you mentioned, and as I understood,
the resolution is:
(To resolve the problem, use these steps:
Change the startup account of both the MSSQLSERVER and
SQLServerAgent to use the Local System account.
Restart the computer. )
As I told you before, the problem is that I can not start
the 'SqlServer' and 'SqlServer agent', so I cann't go and
change the startup account. I don't know, I may be
confused, but I just encountered this Error (Error 1068)
while starting up the SQLServer.
Thanks for any suggestion in advance,
Mattew

Mattew,
Hmmm. Probably means that something changed. Here is
one KB article. Does
it apply?

A more general article (non-SQL Server) on the topic:

Hi,
I'm getting the following error message:
(
Could not start the SQLServerAgent Serviceon local
computer
Error 1068 : The dependency service or group failed to
start
)
This server is a subscriber in a transactional
replication and it was working until yesterday.
Does anybody have a solution.
Thanks in advance.Hi,
Steps to change the service startup account:-
1. Go to control panel -- Administrative - tools
2. Double click in services icon
3. Select and double click the MSSQL Server Service
4. In the "Log on " tab, Check the this account
5. There you verify the OS user name
6. If the user name is correct , re- enter the password and confrim password
once again
7. CLick OK
8. Start the Service
Do the above steps for SQL Agent Service as well.
Note:
ON each password change you have to do the above steps. The best
recommendation to have a user name for MSSQL server Service startup which do
not chage password frequently or no password expiry is set.
Thanks

I just read about changing the startup account in CPanel.
The only thing I would want to toss in is that if you
make login changes at the CPanel level, rather then
Enterprise Mgr, you will have a ton o' problems related
to reg entries and internal stuff.
To sidestep that, if you ARE able to get the server
started using a CPanel change, can you then go into EM
and change it in there under your server's
properties/security page? Kind of a "redundant change?"
