after enabling and disabling a scheduled task (while testing), it seems that one of the jobs cant stop!

i enabled / disabled / enabled the schedule, but the little job just seems to go on and on.  (restart the application did not help) .

It is not vissible in the "job status" screen, so i guess it just has the status "running" but has been stopped. 

But how can i make this job "stop" from showing active in my history screen?

What way are you running the scheduler, is it in timer or request mode (under your host settings). In timer mode, independant threads are spun off, which wait for the exact time and then run their job. As these are independant of dotnetnuke you may have to unload the website or even unload the application pool if using windows 2003/vista/2008. Request mode is not as accurate as timer mode as it's ran inline with the web application (i.e. it needs the web application to "be alive"), but it's much easier to work with.

I was running the scheduler as "request mode" but switched in the mean time to "timer mode".

The problem was that the job did not correctly stop, leaving the enddate in the history table to NULL, giving the impression the job is still running.  A small update of this did the job.
