ABNORMAL Transactional Replication behaviour

Actually i have set up a transactional replication with one publisher
and 1 subscriber (planning, then, to add other 6 subscribers later on).
The point is that after setting everything up, the replication works
really fine for some minutes and then just stops without any warning or
error!! The system is composed by this replication and some others
applications that writes on some tables on the subscriber. This app
starts writting data... everything works fine and then, BANG!, without
any reason data is not sent to the publisher anymore! SQL server doesn't
seems to notice that!
The replication has itself some filters and some tables have numeric
counters with identity YES (also the one that is written by the
application i mentioned before) . But, when i set up the publication i
assign a range to this counters and the replication blocks itself before
reaching the 1 % of the range i assing to this field!!
Anyone has an idea of what is happening?
Please... somebody help me!!
F.P.
what does sp_browsereplcmds reveal? Run this in the distribution database to
see if commands are pooling there.
If they aren't run sp_repltrans in your publication database.

|||Thanks Hilary for the advice, but sp_browsereplcmds reveals only that
the last command was the one for the last record send from the
subscriber to the published database(no cmds for the records in the
subscriber and not replicated to the publisher). Then i tried to run
sp_repltrans on my publication db but it returns me no results... All
the agents continue "working" without any error, but no more records are
replicated (neither from pubisher to subscriber or vice-versa). Wherelse
can i search for the transactions failed? I mean...
Any other idea? The main thing that upsets me is that i'm not able to
see what's going wrong!! I'll try changing some configurations... I'm
using a push subscription... is it better to use a pull one?
I really need some help...
thanks...
