    server agent doesnt start.

    hi guys i keep getting this error when trying to start the sql server agent service.

    "The SQLSERVERAGENT service on Local Computer started and then stopped. Some services stop automatically if they have no work to do, for example, the Performance Logs and Alerts service".

    the SQL server service starts fine and i tryied starting the agent with the same user but it fails still.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks.
