Hey guys, I have had issues with timer jobs in the past and they were related to daylight savings and to a sharepoint bug.
Here is a kb article that relates to this: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/938663 I remember playing around with times and forcing the job to start but I cant remember exactly what the process was. Anyway, Just a thought...

Executing . Command completed successfully The anti virus command is not the job I was expecting to see. If I rerun the command the exact same statements occur....and my job still does not start. I am now trying to do a MOSS Backup and it won't kick off either.

Operation completed successfully." But if I go into Central Administration | Operations | Solution Management, it states that there is a solution on status of 'Deploying(scheduled at 3/13/2008 11:06 AM )'. Which is obviously in the past. Going to Central Administration | Operations | Timer Job Definitions, there is a Job in there called 'Windows SharePoint Services Solution Deployment for '<solutionname>.wsp'' and viewing that job definition states that last run time was 'N/A'. This may be different server farm jobs, but sounds like a similar issue. Overnight, these jobs seem to clear and the status of the Solution goes to deployed. Is there a way to kick start that?

I hadn't used the STSADM command with the execadmsvcjobs argument before so I'll give that a whirl.

These are not custom tasks. On one farm they run within a minute, but on the other farm they seem to take anywhere from an hour to lots longer (I left it running overnight and the task still hasn't run). They are all scheduled as "One-time" tasks. I can see in the Timer definitions that things are running, it's just not picking up the "one-time" tasks. Is there a way to "kick off" the tasks. This is holding up my efforts for configuring the farm and getting everything running since I have to wait for the tasks to run before I can complete the next stage. My topology is all 64bit hardware running Win 2003 server and SQL 2005. 1 x Index Server 2 x WFE (Query) 2 x SQL (clustered) Any help would be appreciated.
