Question

The FogBugz maintenance service does a lot in the background. How do I make it skip steps?

Answer 1

Try putting this URL into your browser. It should load very quickly. Once it loads, you can start deleting parameters off the end of the URL and reloading the page.

[yourfogbugz]/heartbeat.asp?fSkipFulltextIndexer=1&fSkipHeartbeatTasks=1
&fSkipDailyTasks=1&fSkipBayesianTraining=1&fSkipCDBCopier=1
&fSkipMailQueue=1&fSkipScheduleMaint=1&fSkipPluginHeartbeatTasks=1
&fSkipInstallDefaultPlugins=1&fSkipCleanup=1

To remove a parameter, just delete, starting from the end, all characters up to and including the ampersand. So, in the above URL, the first deletion would be:

&fSkipInstallDefaultPlugins=1
