Scheduled agent won't run even when enabled

I have created an agent that runs scheduled fine in several other databases. However, in this one database, it will not run scheduled. I have been able to run it manually without error, but it won’t kick off on the schedule. I have looked at “tell amgr sched” and it does not show up in the list. I have disabled and reenabled it many times trying to kick it off. It has the correct server to run on in the agent properties. And the ACL is fine for access, as well as the server document security. I’m at a loss as to why this very same agent (exact code, signed by same ID) will run on other dbs on the same server without issue, but will not run on this particular db. Can someone help?

Is this checked?

Subject: RE: File, Database Properties, First Tab…

Yes, actually is it checked. But I noticed that the “disable background agents for this database” is also checked and I verified on two other databases running the same agent that it was not checked. I’m testing now to see if unchecking this will fix my problem. UPDATE: I just looked at “tell amgr sched” and it is now on the schedule. Looks like that might have fixed it.

Aget ‘test’ reports on this flag since it is a common thing people forget about, so it looks like you ran agent test after you already enabled it.

Run ‘agent test’ - it will give you a sanity check on common errors which would cause these symptoms.

This is my “agent test”. Both myself and HQAdmin Agent have the same full rights to run agents. That’s not an issue. Looks like there are no errors here.

The following will occur when this agent is run:

All background agents are disabled for this database

Subject: Did you right click on the agent in designer and “Test”? Does it show as enabled in Designer?

Yes, it is enabled and works fine when running manually.

I’m having the same problem. It is enabled and it shows OK in test and runs fine when manually executed.
