Error Log issue

  • Hi All,

    I am getting error message in error log

    "Message

    [LOG] Unable to read local eventlog (reason: The parameter is incorrect)".

    I could not identify what is the problem. and that error is continuos coming every 30 minute interval.

    Please help me to resolve this issue.

    Thanks,

    Arooj

  • This is generally an error found in the SQL Server Agent error log, not the error log for SQL Server (database engine). This has something to do with SQL Server Agent trying to read the local Windows Event log for alert purposes. This was a bug in SQL Server 2005 RTM I believe but was fixed in SP1. I am not aware of it being an issue in SQL Server 2008 (the forum you posted the question in).

    Well right off, you are not running SQL Server 2005 SP2 if you build number is 9.00.1399, because that is RTM. So I would suggst patching your instance.

    However, also note that SQL Server 2005 is out of support and you should look at upgrading to SQL Server 2012/2014.
