Hi,
Recently we are having a problem with the distribution service. It stopped running.
Is there a log file to tell me why it stopped working?
Kind regards
Michael
I do love the generic IT restart solution
Could be.

Hi Michael,
I would check the document log to see if it shows an error on the reload. Also, how many processors does your machine have and how many are allotted for the QVB process?

Hi Bill,
I think the reload failed because there was't enough memory available.
We have 2 processors. There is no particulary configuration on the server to allow process to QV
I would suggest you look in Windows Event Log, to get the exact timestamp when the service stopped. Also you might find the answer in here by looking at events/error leading up to that timestamp.
Next step is to look in the Distribution Service log folder (the path Peter earlier pointed out - make sure to check any file with the date when the service stopped.). Try to analyze the logged information leading up to the timestamp.
Hi Michael,
I think according to the information that you have given, you are having a resource issue on the machine. If two processors the max reloads at the same time would be two, but if QVS is running on the machine this will cause issues.
