SQL Server Troubleshooting
Distribution Agent: The process could not connect to
Subscriber 'XXXX'
Symptom:
A distribution agent has failed, the full error message
text being::
The process could not connect to Subscriber 'XXXX'
where 'XXXX' is the name of the subscriber it was trying
to connect with.
Possible Causes and Remedies:
- The link to the subscriber or the subscriber-server
is down. Try pinging the subscriber. If pinging is unsuccessful then
resolve the network connectivity problem first.
- The login account that the subscriber is using is not
a valid account on the subscriber server. (For example if using the
'system' account instead of a domain account.)
The account that is used can be found under 'Tools',
'Configure Publishing, Subscribers and Distribution...', select
the 'Subscribers' tab and double click the subscriber to show its
properties.
