SQL Job Status shows Running forever.

Hi - I have one SQL job that run on schedule. This jobs normally takes 1
minute the most( It is simply truncating tables on other SQL server and
populate data to those tables). One time it ran for almost more than 24
hours and I have to manually cancel it. This SQL job is schedule to run
every day. Since The job status was running it did not kicked of next day.
Since it did not failed so it did not notify me either.
After cancelling it and then re running it worked fine
Any one know any reason what could SQL server cause to run this job keep
running.

Thanks,
Moh

Did you run sp_who to see if the job spid is blocked?
