sql server replication:
I was creating a new transactional publication and new subscriber on the same
server. The snapshot agent works OK, but the Log Reader is giving this error
The process could not execute 'sp_repldone/sp_replcounters' on 'SPRS76'. The
server name is sprs76.

I am now trying to remove the publication and its just hangs and would not
return any messages.

I have used exec sp_droppublication @publication='<publication name>'

There are other publications and subscriptions ther are working OK on this
server.
There is also one distributor database on theis server.

Thanks for your help.

Open up replication monitor, right click on your subscription in the right
hand pain. And select View Details. Then go to the menu item Action and
Distribution/or Merge Agent job properties. Click on the Steps tab, double
click on run agent, and make the entries in the command text box.
