Hi,

I am getting the following error for my log shipping configuration.

Management Studio could not retrieve information about secondary database.

I have successfully set up the log shipping but when I try to modify the configuration of secondary it throws up this error.
Also, my LS_Copy job is failing and it gives the following error message.

Since I have other jobs running under the same service account between these two servers hence the permission with which the SQL Agent Service account is running should not be an issue. That is, all other LS_Copy jobs (for other Dbs) running under the same service account are working fine.

Please help.
