Author SQL2005: Unable to allocate enough memory to start 'Query Processor'
Sachin

Hi All,

I am using SQL Server 2005. It was working fine.
However all of a sudden I am getting following error.

It fails to start the MSSQLSERVER and SQL Server Agent services with and
error: The request failed or the service did not respond in a timely
fashion. Consult the event log or other applicable error logs for details.

In the log I discover other error:

a.. Unable to allocate enough memory to start 'Query Processor'. Reduce
non-essential memory load or increase system memory.
Any help or pointer?

Thanks in advance
Sachin

How much memory in the machine?
A lot of apps using memory on the machine?
Did you specify max server memory for SQL Server? If so, what value?

Try starting SQL Server using the /f switch and specify a reasonable value for max server memory
(see sp_configure for that).
