J2EE Synchronizing Binaries

Question

Greetings all
I'm in desperate need of assistance here. I've got an EP6 installation running on WAS 6.40. The install worked fine, it's been running for some time now without a problem.
Now however, the J2ee won't restart. The JControl.exe just sits in "Synchronizing Binaries" for ever, and will not complete. I have left it running for days, and it will not finish.
I can't find any errors to show me any problems, and have logged it with SAP. I was hoping someone here may have some advice on the matter...
Thanks in advance to any responses...
Cheers

Hi All
I have logged an OSS message, and waiting to hear back.
I'm using MSSQL and there is plenty of room remaining. I have checked the database logs and there are no errors. I have restarted it many times over the past few days, and each time it just hangs at the same point.
Vyara, how do I create a thread dump of the process?
Also, what is the best way to check the connection to the database? From everything that I have heard, it's looking more and more likely that it's a problem with that.
Which memory settings would most impact the bootstrap process synchronizing?
Thanks for the replies everyone.
