When I create a new maintenance plan for any of the database maintenance activities I get the following message.
Error Message “Unable to start execution of step 1 (reason: line(1): Syntax error). The step failed.”
So I started to investigate what configuration in the maintenance plan was causing this failure. I saw that in the job step where the information for the maintenance plan is mentioned the ‘\’ at the beginning of the plan name was missing.
The typical plan names are mentioned as
\Maintenance Plans\Full Backups
But this time it was mentioned as
Maintenance Plans\Full Backups
So I added the ‘\’ at the beginning of the plan name in the job step and it worked.
