    Hi, I am getting this error when I am trying to synchronize subscriber with publisher

    SQLServerAgent Error: Request to run job HARI-Hari-snapshothari-Hari\DEV-TestDb-FC2E2F54-9B08-4303-AA0D-B139A369C1F0 (from User sa) refused because the job is already running from a request by User sa.
    Changed database context to 'TestDb'. (.Net SqlClient Data Provider)

    What is the status showing in Replication Monitor?  The error is stating the job is already running.

    Right-click the job in SQL Server Agent jobs -> Stop Job.  Then try to synchronize.

    It sounds like the snapshot agent is already running. Open up replication monitor, connect with your distributor, then drill down on your publication in the left hand side. On the right hand side, select agents, and then right click on the snapshot agent and select view details - This will tell you the status of your snapshot agent.

    Once the snapshot is done it will be deployed to the subscriber via the distribution/merge agent.
