log reader agent stuck in 'retrying'

  • trying to set up a simple publication on sql server 2000 (Microsoft SQL Server 2000 - 8.00.2039)

    My SQL Agent is running using an NT authenticated account that is an administrator on the server. I created a new Publication of 2 tables - set it up as transactional replication - continuous log reading. I basically took all of the defaults in the wizard.

    The log reader job starts - then bounces from starting to retrying for 15 mins or so before failing.

    I do not see any errors in the sql server or replication log. The only error I can find is in the application event log for the job itself: SubSystem Message - Job 'TestDB-TestDB-8' (0x64C7317E150D984198AA5473511F6558), step 2 - Server execution failed

    can anyone help????
