Hi all,
Current setup:
SQL Server 2008 R2
Windows Server 2008 R2 with Bitlocker drive encryption enabled
I'm having an issue in that the service 'SQL Server (MSSQLSERVER)' is failing to starty automatically. This service is running under a domain account specifically created to run the SQL service.
The error I'm receiving in Event Viewer: 'The SQL server service terminated with service-specific error %%17058'
There's nothing I can see showing up in the SQL error logs themselves.
My first thoughts were that either Bitlocker was interfering in some way, or that the account that is running the service is lacking permissions of some kind.
The thing is, if I try and manually start the service is works with no issues. The server starts and functions perfectly from then. I really need the automatic start to work to make it less dependent on human intervention on boot though.
Any ideas?
Thanks
