sql server agent errors starting

[ezecastle]

Hi guys, I'm trying to figure out why i'm having issues with the SQL server agent trying to start.

the error i get is 14258 cannot perform this operation while sqlserveragent is starting. try again later. sql-dmo(odbc sqlstate:42000)

any ideas how to fix this. I start the service as a domain user that is an admin on the server. but when i run a job it gives me the above error.

thanks.
