Hi,
Unfortunately doing a COLD start will not help in this case, as it does not affect the OH and HOST tables, where server processes exist as objects.
In such a case you have 2 ways of removing those server processes 1. From the Explorer / Process Assembly in Client 0.They are located in
<No Folder> This won't work in scenarios where the Automation Engine is refusing to start with this error message:
U0038140 Action not possible. Different Automation Platform Systems were started with this database
You will then have to use the solution 2. :
2. Issue a DELETE statement in order to remove the WPs.
Please create a support case for this issue. Here is the related Known Error article:
