Home Forums SQL Server 2005 Administering SQLServerAgent could not be started (reason: Error creating a new session). RE: SQLServerAgent could not be started (reason: Error creating a new session).

  • Yes, I do faced the same issue.

    Error from Eventvwr: SQLServerAgent could not be started (reason: Error creating a new session)

    Resolution:

    1) Add the service account as Administrators at server level. i.e. Computer -- Manage -- Administrators -- Add service account

    2) Provide the SA privileges to the service account and start the agent service.

    Thanks,
