5,745 PointsIs it possible that you are looking at the tasks tree mode instead of the text mode? In the tree mode it seems that the bootRun is stuck forever... but if you go the browser your will see that the server is working properly. (Switching between the mode by clicking on the icon just under "giflib [bootRun]", at the upper-left corner of the tab)
