In Windows 2003, I have a service that once in awhile will not stop when I
tell it to.

It sits as Stopping and won't finish. Now there seems no way to start it
again without rebooting the server.

I know what the problem is, just haven't been able to fix all the problems
that cause it.

Is there a way to kill it so I can restart it without rebooting the server?

Thanks,

Tom

Re: Service Stopping

Hello tshad,

What service are you talking about? Some services, like exchange for example,
can take a long time to stop if running on older machines.

It is a windows service I created and am testing it.

But it was getting stuck on a Mutex.

I found out how to kill it by going to the Task manager and killing it
there.

Thanks,
