From: Vibs on 13 Nov 2009 05:45 Running the SQL 2005 Management Studio 2005 Express as ADMINSTRATOR solved my problem under windows vista and even under Windows Seven. Thanks a lot for the quick solution. Jeffrey Williams wrote: Re: Unable to stop service SQLSERVERAGENT 18-Oct-08 John Bell wrote: This is NOT a bug. Since you are running Vista - you cannot stop/start the service from SSMS unless you are running SSMS as the Administrator. Right click on the shortcut to SSMS - Run As Administrator and you will be able to start/stop SQL Server. BTW - if you want to start/stop a server that is not running on the same Vista system that is not a problem at all. All part of Vista's UAC.

Stopping either service from the services applet is not a problem - both mine and the respective service account are part of local Admin group.

Try making a connecting with a local admin windows account! John On Tuesday, October 14, 2008 5:06 AM SA wrote: I am getting this same error message too. I am getting this same error message too. I even changed the services to start as the user connected to the db and I still can't start/stop either db or agent. I can do this via control panel no problem. I have VS 2008 installed and I am running Vista Ultimate. I suspect that it is one of these that is causing the problem. BTW, tried as sa and as a user that is in the local admins group and a sysadmin. What I really don't like is that I have progressively opened up my system to allow remote access, features that I don't use, elevated permissions. None of these work. A sysadmin user can't stop/start sql server in management studio. That is a bug imo.

You may want to try and re-install the client tools. John On Friday, October 17, 2008 6:48 PM SA wrote: That's a lame response. That's a lame response. Multiple people with the same problem is not likely to be MY system, which is 2 month old Dell with virtually nothing on it but MS VS 2008 and SQL Server. The fact that SQL Server 2005 does not even work with VS 2008 is a pretty good sign that it is not me. It is MS compatibility with its own products. Which is a bug *IMO* "John Bell" wrote: On Saturday, October 18, 2008 9:03 AM John Bell wrote: Re: Unable to stop service SQLSERVERAGENT And what does such as statementl like SQL Server 2005 does not work with VS 2008 mean????
