AEM6.5 OOTB Adobe granite workflow purge not working from weekly maintenance page

[srinivas_chann1]

Hi,

I want to kill or purge a running workflow using maintenance page which does not work.

I have configured the workflow purge from 

/libs/granite/operations/content/maintenanceWindow.html/conf/global/settings/granite/operations/main...

When I manually trigger the purge by clicking the run option on the maintenance page. 

I still see the running work  of "update-metadata-asset" on /libs/cq/workflow/content/console.html

The work flow is running from past 1 week (i.e 7 days).

What could be the issue ?? What could I do to resolve this issue??

Note:- There are few other workflows too are still in running state which are not getting removed using workflow purge

Thanks,

Srinivas

Hi @srinivas_chann1 ,

Please check your workflow instance in Granite UI - > http://localhost:4502/aem/start.html Tools -> Workflow.

Did you try a restart of a system? If this does not work:

Following steps seem to stop the background process:

1. Make sure workflows are terminated via the normal /workflows window.
2. Open ip:port/system/console/bundles:
