Hello. I am having difficulty troubleshooting this transactional replication error. This is a pull subscription and the publisher/distributor (same server) is on the same network. The scheduled job controlling the agent is set to run every 4 minutes. The job starts fine, but the process for the distribution agent remains on the publisher/distributor and so the next time the job runs, I get this error. If the orphaned process (no wait state) is kill(ed), The job resumes fine and begins delivering transactions. Any help determining the cause would be appreciated. This just started occuring last week and the subscription has been around for months with no problems.
