OK, I'm not sure what has happened. Or if someone was playing where they should not have been but...
We are running BES 5.0 Mr3. SQL is on another box (Windows 2008, SQL 2005 sp3). There are other DB's up and running fine on that machine. When the BES services are started things go to hell. Basically SQL stops responding, and I can't even connect to it using SQL Management Studio. Kill all the BES services, and restart SQL on the other server....everything is fine...until BES is started again. I dont see much in the SQL logs as well
I'm not much of a DB guy, but someone please help!
I am on AT&T. Please edit your Personal Profile with your DEVICE TYPE, DEVICE OS and Carrier

Start with checking permissions first.
KB02276 - Assigning permissions for a BlackBerry Enterprise Server service account

OK, confirmed the permissions as required. When I begin to launch the BES Services I see on the SQL box the following in the event viewer
A timeout (30000 milliseconds) was reached while waiting for a transaction response from the MSSQLSERVER service.
Thats when things begin to go south on the SQL server.
Thats when I start the policy service, the event log error on the BES is
NotifyDatabase: COM Error 0x80040E31 - IDispatch error #3121 - Source: Microsoft SQL Native Client - Description Query timeout expired - Command "sp_ServiceConfig

IDispatch error #3121 basically tells us that there's a SQL connectivity issue, which would make sense given that SQL becomes unresponsive.
Are you able to start the Dispatcher at all?
If we just start the Router, Dispatcher and Controller, does the SQL server start to fail? Does it seem to help up until you start the Mailstore, Policy and Synchronization services?

Fired up the router no problem. Tried to start the dispatcher and SQL started to fail on the SQL box
