The initial snapshot for publication is not yet available.

After removing one of the article from my existing publisher, I reinitilized the replication with new snapshot but nothing was being replicated between the publisher SQL Server instance and the subscriber SQL Server instance.

I am using sql server 2012, and i've set up a transcational push replication between two servers. The replication monitor does not give me any error I can only see the following message :

The initial snapshot for publication is not yet available....

Snapshot agent is responsible to generate a snapshot to initialize the objects that is being replicated. In the above scenario , my snapshot agent was not started , I simply run the snapshot agent and gererate a new snapshot and initialized my replication.
