Error 14258

Hi,
The SQLServerAgent has NOT started properly after a
shutdown/reboot two days ago. If you look at the service
manager, the service appears to have started, but its
really not.
Here is what you have to do:
Stop the SQLServerAgent (Not SQL Server)
Restart the service (make no errors are recorded)
Here is something else you may have not noticed, since
this error has been occurring, your scheduled jobs have
not run. You might want to backup your databases and run
any other jobs you may have.

OK I've stopped and restarted the service several times. Event Viewer claims
the service started succesfully. Where else can I look for errors? The SQL
Server logs show no errors with the Agent. But you are correct - the jobs
are NOT running! Any other sugggestions on where to look for the problem?

Error "Provider cannot be found. It may not be properly installed." after deploying ap

hello folks

i have recently started to work with the analysis services and i am having some problems.

i have made a web application that for now just tries to connect to an analysis server.

The server is installed on an xp sp 2 system.

for testing, i used my local computer, which is running also win xp sp2. After deploying, the application can connect to the AS server on the other machine. the problem occurs when i try to deploy the applicatuion on the production server, which is running win 2k3 server on 32 bit. When deploying, i use the same connection string, so it should try to connect to the AS server installed on a win xp sp2 system.

The first thing that came to my mind was to check the MDAC versions, be cause of the message: "Provider cannot be found. It may not be properly installed."

on my computer, where the application worked ok, the version is MDAC 2.8 SP 1 Windows XP SP 2

on the win2k3 server, the MDAC version is : MDAC 2.8 SP2.... i thought it was the version of the service pack, so o searched for the update of MDAC 2.8 SP1, trying to install mdac 2.8 sp2 to see if i was to see the same error, but i found that mdac 2.8 sp2 is only for win2k3 server, and for win xp is mdac 2.8 sp1, according to this link: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/884103

Now i got confused and have no clues how to make this work...

Can anybody give any hint?

The Analysis Services provider is not part of the core MDAC, it is available for download from the feature pack at http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=df0ba5aa-b4bd-4705-aa0a-b477ba72a9cb&displaylang=en

look for the downloads under Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Analysis Services 9.0 OLE DB Provider
