Killing ASP.NET threads

In my ASP.NET application, I have a script that I periodically automatically call to update the database. Due to a bug in this code, several invocation of it entered an infinite loop.

I am on a shared hosting, so I can't just restart IIS. I have tried “stopping” the website from the hosting's management website, but it had no effect.

Since they are running for seveal hours now, I assume there is no time开发者_开发问答out configured. So, I would like to kill those “processes” (I assume it's actually just threads), is there a way to do that without contacting my hosting company?

Updating the web.config will stop your application. Assuming you can access the files of the website.

Have you tried stopping the application pool for the website?

I was logging some information from the threads I wanted to kill to a file. The code is able to create the file if it doesn't exists, but the same does not apply, to the folder it's in.

So I temporarily renamed the folder with the log and the threads seem to have stopped.
