  • 1.  GSS 3.1 Altiris Deployment Server DB Management Service Won't Start

    Posted Feb 23, 2017 11:25 AM

    HI - I am new to the Ghost imaging solution moving from SCCM. A little history on our setup:

    Running Server 2016 (for GSS 3.1 MPV 5)

    connecting to remote SQL database using a domain account and network authentication

    We were able to connect to the database during setup and all seemed to process normally. Now when I try and open Ghost Solution Suite Console I get the following error: Unable to connect to the database. Would you like to try to open a different site? In the event veiwer I see an event for dbmanager.exe;

     

    Faulting application name: dbmanager.exe, version: 13.1.0.275, time stamp: 0x56b0467d
    Faulting module name: ntdll.dll, version: 10.0.14393.0, time stamp: 0x57898d9d
    Exception code: 0xc0000374
    Fault offset: 0x000d9841
    Faulting process id: 0x334
    Faulting application start time: 0x01d28d5593ba8c67
    Faulting application path: C:\Program Files (x86)\Altiris\eXpress\Deployment Server\dbmanager.exe
    Faulting module path: C:\Windows\SYSTEM32\ntdll.dll
    Report Id: 0744cf7b-1748-459c-ad92-189de46c8306
    Faulting package full name:
    Faulting package-relative application ID:

    Any Help would be appreatied

    Daniel,

    First off make sure the db service ("Altiris Deployment Server DB Management") is running.

    When you did the initial install, you were prompted for a username and password. Has that username or password been changed recently since the install of GSS?

    If so open services and right click on the Altiris Deployment Server DB Management service, navigate to the "Log On" tab and update the username and password shown here. This needs to be set to an administrator account. Also make this change for the "Altiris Express Server" service.
