Resolved How can I stop a running task?

Hello!

I'm new to Plesk Obsidian and I wanted to checkout the "Scheduled tasks" functionality in Websites & Domains > Dev Tools.

I was able to successfully run a command, but now the task its stuck in "Running task" and it wont stop and I see no option to stop running tasks... I also would like to add that my plan does not have enabled the option to login via Remote Desktop.

So, how can I manage to stop a running task if I don't have access to the plesk db command?

Thanks!!
