SQL Server Agent will not start

Can’t get SQL Server Agent to start. Errors out. Do you know how to fix these kinds of things?

    What are you wanting to do with the SQL Server Agent? It's usually not needed in a typical Rock environment because you don't really need to schedule SQL maintenance jobs since Rock has built-in jobs that keep the db cleaned up. 

    That said, if you really DO need to run the SQL Agent (which is NOT SQL server itself) you might try googling around as this would be a SQL server issue, not Rock. Why it won't start could be for a bunch of reasons.

    Thanks Jim. 

    I haven't been able to connect to the SQL Server to start installation and thought this was the problem. Guess not. Any ideas at what I should look into?
