Task in QMC cannot be stopped

[Anonymous]

I tried to stop and disable task in QMC, but it will automatically start to run again.

I also tried to delete TaskLoq from PublisherTemp\Tasks and restart server but it didn't help?

help please,

What exactly did you do to stop/disable a task scheduled to run repetitively? Can you post a screenshot of the relevant QMC tabs? Especially those where you disabled the task.

I'm sorry but I don't understand what you mean by  "...tried to delete TaskLoq from PublisherTemp\Tasks...". Do you mean "TaskLog"?

Search for the PID in the log file and kill the PID from task manager..

Hi Atte,

We can kill the QV Tasks by performing below options..

1) You can find PID and try to kill corresponding PID from task manager in server where QDS was installed.

2) You can stop the QDS Service and then start service. So, all running QV Tasks change the status from Running to Failed.

I know it's an old thread, the solution is to find the TaskId in the reload log and delete the corresponding file in C:\ProgramData\QlikTech\DistributionService\TaskResults

Agreed @p_verkooijen. These steps are also covered in Qlik Support article How to identify a QlikView Distribution Service Task Process ID (PID) in Order to Stop a Hung QVB En....
