mmc.exe Error - Please HELP

I had SQL Server Personal edition on my Windows XP
Professional client computer and something happened
yesterday when the network people push down Antivirus
update. Now when I try to connect other SQL Servers on the
network, it takes too long and I keep hearing raddling
disk noise.
I have the following error messages on my Event viewer:
Hanging application mmc.exe, version 5.1.2600.0, hang
module hungapp, version 0.0.0.0, hang address 0x00000000.
also
Hanging application isqlw.exe, version 2000.80.194.0, hang
module hungapp, version 0.0.0.0, hang address 0x00000000.
Is there anyone else has experienced this.
Thanks for any feedback.I'd run a ScanDisk ... peculiar noises from any disks are usually not good.

Missing What To Start SQLServer Agent in EM

Installed Office service pack and it 'messed' up the Enterprise Manager. Af
ter reinstalling the client tools and the sp3a service pack all worked but s
cheduled jobs. It turns out that the SQL Server Agent is not running. It d
oesn't automatically start
up but can be started from DOS whereby my jobs in turn can execute with no p
roblem.
Would like to know what the proper registry setting for SQLServerAgent under
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControl
Set\Services\SQLServerAgent should
be for SQL Server 8.0.859 with service pack 3a as suspect that the problem m
ay be there.
Otherwise open to suggestions so that do not have to backup, uninstall, and
reinstall 10 database.....
Thanxs,
dmatta59The first thing to do here is go into the Control Panel -> Admin Tools ->
Services applet & see if the SQLAgent$[instance] service is configured t
o
auto-start. Your post doesn't indicated that you've done that, so make sure
the service's "Startup Type" property is set to "Automatic". If it still
doesn't start automatically, check the Windows Event Log to see what's
wrong.

After reinstalling the client tools and the sp3a service pack all worked but
scheduled jobs. It turns out that the SQL Server Agent is not running. It
doesn't automatically start up but can be started from DOS whereby my jobs
in turn can execute with no problem.

rSocket Error but after the registers were cleaned and errors removed the e
rror no longer appears. When viewing the registry for SQLServerAgent there
was some mention in one of
the previous posts about a "dependancies" which is not present so would app
reciate what the registry would look like for MSSQLSERVER and SQLSERVERAGENT
.
Again it works fine if started from a dos command line but most inconvienent
not to have it start automatically or start from within the EM.
Any suggestions?
dmatta59|||Have resolved the problem. Used scm.exe to install the SQLServerAgent servi
ce using the instructions on the following article:
http://groups.google.com/groups?q=i...tngxa06&rnum=21
**Please note that the in this case the sqlagent -c -v was working from the
dos prompt and the jobs could run properly. The only problem was that the S
QLServerAgent was not automatically starting or couldn't be started within E
M.
Thank you,

Missing embedded images in Reporting Services

We currently have reports for a client running on SQL 2000 RS. The strange thing (problem) is that we can see any embedded image in the Report when we Preview it, and view it on our testing server (SQL 2000), but at the client's site (also running SQL 2000) the images don't appear at all. The same goes for any graphs inside the report as well. This is very puzzling as we cannot find out what the problem is. The other strange thing is that we can see the images on the client's site when running them through Report Manager, but when we go through the application using the Reports, then the images do not appear at all. We have no idea of what's wrong. The app is running on 2003 Server x64, the database is being hosted on another server running 2003 Server, and the report server is running on another server running Windows 2000 Server.

Any help will be much appreciated.
Hi Eduard,

Any luck resolving this issue? We are having the same problem and have not been able to find a solution. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Joel

You might want to try setting UseSessionCookies to false in the ConfigurationInfo table of the ReportServer db.
