Client stuck on activities page and cannot not be stopped

Hi,
I have a Windows 7 client that failed it’s backup weeks ago but still shows on the activities page.
I have tried stopping it from the server end and at the client.
I have also restarted both client and server but the damned client is always there on the activities page.

How can I kill it? :rage:

Hi all,
I updated the server and the client finally disappeared.
When it tried to backup again it stops and once more it won’t go away.
Here’s the output from the show log button;
25/07/17 18:58 DEBUG GT: Linked file “Pkzip25.exe”
25/07/17 18:58 DEBUG GT: Linked file “Voucher.dll”

25/07/17 18:58 DEBUG GT: Linked file “Gl.bmp”

It will stay like that forever.

Here’s the last log entry for this client;

Anyone got a clue what’s going on?

I still have this client on the activities page. It came back after a server update to 2.2.3

If you can, can you post stacktraces of active threads? E.g. via gdb attach PID, then thread apply all bt.

I think I have an issue with GDB…

Make sure it is a later version. That version is from 2004 :wink: (pkg install gdb or something…)

Updating the Server version to 2.2.4 cleared the issue completely.
The client now backs up and disappears just like all the rest.

Many thanks for the help and the great software.
