View products that this article applies to.

Symptom

After you restart SQL Server, the SQL Server services fail to come online and the startup log contains the following errors: 17182, 17826, or 17120.

Notes

  • This issue only occurs on a SQL Server instance that runs under a domain account.
  • In the log, you see messages that are similar to the following sample entries:
     
    Time stamp spid9s Error: 17182, Severity: 16, State: 1.
    Time stamp spid9s TDSSNIClient initialization failed with error 0xffffffff, status code 0x80. Reason: Unable to initialize SSL support.
    Time stamp spid9s Error: 17182, Severity: 16, State: 1.
    Time stamp spid9s TDSSNIClient initialization failed with error 0xffffffff, status code 0x1. Reason: Initialization failed with an infrastructure error. Check for previous errors.
    Time stamp spid9s Error: 17826, Severity: 18, State: 3.
    Time stamp spid9s Could not start the network library because of an internal error in the network library. To determine the cause, review the errors immediately preceding this one in the error log.
    Time stamp spid9s Error: 17120, Severity: 16, State: 1.

Cause

This issue occurs because the permissions that are usually granted to a SQL Service account are missing. The user rights for the SQL Server startup account that must be present are:

  1. Log on as a service (SeServiceLogonRight).
  2. Replace a process-level token (SeAssignPrimaryTokenPrivilege).
  3. Bypass traverse checking (SeChangeNotifyPrivilege).
  4. Adjust memory quotas for a process.

Resolution

To resolve the issue, grant the missing permissions to the SQL Service domain account. For more information about service permissions, see the Service Permissions section in the article Configure Windows Service Accounts and Permissions.
