Hi all,
It seems that this problem has been reported before
http://dev.list.galaxyproject.org/jobs-don-t-get-killed-when-histories-deleted-tp4658452.html and should be solved
https://trello.com/card/jobs-stop-job-function-in-jobs-admin-interface-is-broken/506338ce32ae458f6d15e4b3/627. However I am using the Apr-2014 version (at least the version with the fancy Load Data button at top of tools panel which is a quite new feature).
The jobs from deleted histories still hang around in the manage jobs admin page with some cannot-finish setting_metadata jobs. The interesting thing is that the last update time is always less than 24 hours.
How to delete these unwanted jobs?
Best regards!
