Cannot expand SQL error Log in SSMS

  • I get the following error when I try to expand the sql server log in the management studio. My login is in the securityadmin server role.

    TITLE: Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio

    ------------------------------

    Failed to retrieve data for this request. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Sdk.Sfc)

    ------------------------------

    ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:

    An exception occurred while executing a Transact-SQL statement or batch. (Microsoft.SqlServer.ConnectionInfo)

    ------------------------------

    A severe error occurred on the current command. The results, if any, should be discarded. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 0)

  • I would try running the command

    exec sp_readerrorlog

    In case that the bug is because of the GUI, it should work. If there is another problem, then you'll see the real error.

    I get the following error

    Failed to open loopback connection.

  • A short search on Google on the error that you got pointed me to this old thread - http://qa.sqlservercentral.com/Forums/Topic767980-146-1.aspx which shows 2 possible solutions. Hope that it will help you.

  • I noticed that SQL SERVER was running under NTSERVICE\MSSQLserver account. I changed that to run under domain service account and this resolved the issue Thank you!
