  I have configure merge replication in command prompt i.e MS DOS prompt.

  i used command prompt utilities lile replmerg.exe.This file asks the distributor, subscriber and publisher details.

  Publisher: pubs and distributor is also same server.

  Subscriber:nowthwind

  publication:pubs_north

  It gives an error message: The subscription to publication 'pubs_north' has expired or does not exists.

  Please give me a solution immediately.

  Use the replication wizard. No reason at all to use the command line for replication.

  You need to add the subscriber to the subscription using sp_addmergesubscription before activating the merge agent.
