Service Stopping

[Guest tshad]

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

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.
