Unable to turn off replication( replication not working)

  • A former employee attempted to set up replication on our production

    databases, which are all MS SQL Server 2000. He never did get

    replication working( it is snapshot replication), and we

    attempted to turn off replication after we realized that log shipping

    was more suitable to our needs. We were able to turn off replication

    on 2 of the databases w/o incident, hownever on the 3rd we cannot make

    the replication agents go away. We have no idea why, whether we are in

    single user mode or standard mode, the same thing happens, we just ge

    an hourglass. The same thing happens whether we attempt from query anlyzer or enterprise manager. We have let it hourglass as long as 90 minutes before

    having ot kill enterprise manager. When we turned off replication on

    the other 2 databases, one of which is much larger than the one we're

    having problems w/, it was almost instantaneous. Any suggestions?

  • Here is a link. May it help.
