Re: An error 1059 - (The Service did not Start due to a logon failure)



It sounds like the services are running under your windows
account. If that's the case, you need to change the password
for the service accounts if they are the same as yours.
Looks like this is SQL Server 2005 so you can use the SQL
Server Configuration Manager to change the password for the
services.

I installed SQL Server on my PC and it has been running fine for a few

I recently changed by network password; Is there something that has to be
done to SQL Server when this is done ?
