Hi,

you can kill the QVB.exe process.

Open the log at the QMC, after you started the task.

At this log search a line like this:

(2014-04-17 09:05:39) Information: MachineName=ServerNameXYZ

and


(2014-04-17 09:05:40) Information: Opened the QlikView Engine successfully. ProcessID=44716

Open the Taskmanager on the Server and look for the process 44716 (my case, you should have a different PID).

If you found this PID verify the program name. If the name is qvb.exe kill this process -> this will result in a failed task.

Regards

Michael
