How to delete a timer job definition

  • Artículo

YOU SHOULD ONLY DO THESE ACTIONS ON A NON-PRODUCTIVE ENVIRONMENT 

If you want to delete a Sharepoint Timer Job Definitions follow these steps:

  1. Get the GUID of the timer job definition with the following cmdlet:
    get-sptimerjob | sort-object -property Name | ft Name, Id
  2. stsadm.exe -o deleteconfigurationobject -id <GUID>

    Check if just the statement Get-SPTimerJob jobName -WebApplication webApplicationName will return results. I think you might have any typo in your jobName or webapp name and thus will not get any results.

    yes you can delete/deactivate the timerjob/feature using jobname.delete() inside the Feature dactivation method of timerjob eventreceiver.

    My proposal: $job = Get-SPTimerJob jobName -WebApplication webApplicationName $job.Delete()

    Job.Delete() method is throwing error while trying to remove the timer job from feature deactivating event. Error that is coming is "object reference not set to an instance of an object" stack trace in sharepoint log shows. Any idea on this. Please advice. I was able to delete the job using powershel script as mentioned by Stefan Illner   at Microsoft.SharePoint.Utilities.SPSqlCommand.get_ReturnValue()   at Microsoft.SharePoint.Administration.SPConfigurationDatabase.DeleteObject(Guid id)   at Microsoft.SharePoint.Administration.SPConfigurationDatabase.DeleteObject(SPPersistedObject obj)   at Microsoft.SharePoint.Administration.SPPersistedObject.Delete()   at Microsoft.SharePoint.Administration.SPJobDefinition.Delete()   at KPMG.ITSGlobal.MySite.ProfileTranslation.KPMGItsGlobalMySiteEventReceiver.<>c__DisplayClass2.<DeleteMySiteProfileTranslationJob>b__0()   at Microsoft.SharePoint.SPSecurity.<>c__DisplayClass5.<RunWithElevatedPrivileges>b__3()   at Microsoft.SharePoint.Utilities.SecurityContext.RunAsProcess(CodeToRunElevated secureCode)

    Hi  ms-okoestner, I have checked that the name is fine and there is no Typo error. Again I'm abale to delete the Job using powershell script but not through code when deactivating a feature on site collection level.
