SQL Server service timeout error
Hello,
When using SQL Server 2014, in the SQL Configuration Manager, the SQL Server service is stopped. I tried to start it, but I get a timeout error: 'The request failed or the service did not respond in a timely fashion.'
Please let me know if you can solve this issue.
Thanks,
Zahra Addetia

For the SQL Server 2014 timeout error, I also tried going to Log On in the Properties window of the SQLEXPRESS service in SQL Configuration Manager. I tried changing it to Built-in Account and selecting Local System. I got an error: 'The group name could not be found [0x800708ac].' Please let me know if you can help with this problem.
Thanks,
Zahra

I tried starting the service from "services.msc" but that didn't work. Please let me know how I can change the login user for the service or any next steps.
Thanks,

Could you try start it directly from services.msc ? If that doesn’t work you may need to change the login user for the service.
Kind Regards,
