How to resolve an SQL 10 Error due to Service not Running

1. Confirm the Database Service Status 

  • If you have a network database see our article Resolving SQL Errors On a Network Database
  • Go to Setup > System > Database and check the Status section circled below
  • If the status shows;
    • "Not Installed", 
      • Most likely, SQL was not installed at the same time as MyoVision. Make sure to update Windows and follow the instructions in the Installing SQL support article.
      • If a database was previously on the computer (able to perform and review exams), see step 2.
    • "Stopped", follow the instructions in the Stopped SQL Service support article.
    •  the software is configured for a network database, which means the database is on a different computer.
      • See our article Resolving SQL Errors On a Network Database

2. Start the SQL Server Service

  • Click "Start"
  • A pop-up will appear for "Do you want to allow this app to make changes to your device?" Click "Yes"
    • If not logged into an Administrator account, enter the login information for the Administrator account for the computer if prompted.

3. Confirm SQL Service started successfully 

  • Process may take several moments and the software may become unresponsive during this time. Wait until the software is responsive.
  • Status field should now say "Running"
    • This means the SQL Server Service is functioning and the database should function
  • To double-check the database works, click the "Test DB" button
