SQL JOB HANGS

  • I am facing problems in jobs which hangs on some steps sometimes and does not allow us to stop the job, it shows the status as executing in any of the steps of the job, and does not allow to stop unless and until we retstart the service, this is quite strange, it was not hapening previously, but has started nowdays, from last 2 days, does anyone know y it occurs. the job has Active x scripts and if u view the job history it shows that it is cancelled due to restart of the service.. Please any help into this matter would be appreciated.

    Regards

    Jay

  • Jay,

    Not sure why you are having problems. But what i might do is query the sysprocesses table in master database. And then run dbcc inputbuffer(spid)(where spid is the id of that process) and see if you get some more information.

  • Try copying the ActiveXScripts into seperate files and execute them at a command prompt. You'll probably find that the script is waiting for some sort of input.

    Thanks
