Distribution Database

My distribution Database is set to Simple mode , but the log file is filling
up every few days. the error is as follow
The log file for database 'Distribution_CCMSQL' is full. Back up the
transaction log for the database to free up some log space..
what is going on how can I backup the transaction log when my database is in
Simple Mode.
Thanks,
run a dbcc opentran in there to see if there is an orphaned transaction.
Other than that I would put it into full and dump it every 15-20 minutes.
