Replication Issue on SQL 2005 sp3 64bit win2k r2 sp2

[RG]

Looking at the log below, why would I get this error? I found that bunch of
stored procedures were invalidated at around the same time. Could this have
something to do with it?

Thanks in advance

I'd check a couple of things:

1) Does the stored procedure exist at the publisher? If not,
something turned replication off in that database.
2) Does whatever account you're using for the logreader to connect to
the publisher have db_owner at the publisher database? According to
BOL, that's what it needs (sad, but true).

If neither of those point you in the right direction, I'd set up a
trace for sp_replcmds at the publisher and see what error it's
getting.

2) Does whatever account you're using for the logreader to connect to
the publisher have db_owner at the publisher database? According to
BOL, that's what it needs (sad, but true).

I am assuming it is whatever user running sqlagent. This is interesting,
because that user doesn't have dbo privileges to the publisher db. Now, the
user that sqlagent runs under is local administrator. Shouldn't have all the
privileges under the sun? If, in fact, this is the cause, what kind issues
does this create?

Thanks again

It depends; if you left BUILTIN\Administrators in the sysadmin group,
then yes, it should be able to do anything on the box. What did the
sql trace turn up? Without knowing what error is being thrown, it's
difficult to prescribe a solution.
