Backup Exec Job Engine failed to start

Submitted by Jochus on Fri, 14/10/2011 - 08:27 | Posted in:



We are currently using Backup Exec on our SBS 2008 server to backup our data, but we had problems starting up the Backup Exec Job Engine service after a reboot of the server.


Service Control Manager: Event Details:
-----------------------------------------
The Backup Exec Job Engine service depends on the Backup Exec Server service which failed to start because of the following error: The dependency service or group failed to start.

So Job Engine is waiting for Backup Exec Server which is still starting. It needs to wait for the Server service, before it should startup!
In the services.msc console, we delayed the start of the Job Engine service by changing the Startup Type from "Automatic" to "Automatic (Delayed Start)". This fixed our problem!
