- Event Viewer at Boot-time error message re SQL Server MSSQL$MICRO
- Posted by Uncle John on November 29th, 2005
Good Evening All
The following red-cross error message appears at every reboot in Event
Viewer\System
The SQLAgent$MICROSOFTBCM service depends on the MSSQL$MICROSOFTBCM service
which failed to start because of the following error:
The system cannot find the path specified.
I have not been able to track it down, I do not have MSQL Server Installed
as such but an entry is present for it in Program Files and the Microsoft
baseline Security Analyser reports that it is functioning in a semi-secure
mode.
It may be part of the Microsoft Security Centre or Office Business Contact
Manager so I dare not remove it but I would love to stop the tiresome error
message - my system alerts me to any major errors in Event Viewer.
Any one know how?

The error message states MICROSOFTBCM which should be referring to the
Business Contact Manager software (BCM.) You may have re-install the
Business Contact Manager software.

I uninstalled the BCM because it worked so badly. Is there a way of blocking
the message otherwise?

Yves and Seth
Thanks for your help
Turned off the two related services and the helper service and that has
stopped the error message.
Nothing else seems to have been affected
