lsof -i tcp port number - will list the process running on that port   kill -9 PID - will kill the process  in your case  it will  be  lsof -i tcp 3000 from your terminal find the PID of process  kill -9 PID

To forcefully kill a process like that  use the following command   lsof -n -i4TCP 3000    Where 3000 is the port number the process is running at  this returns the process id PID  and run   kill -9  PID    Replace PID with the number you get after running the first command

You should try this  This technique is OS Independent   In side your application there is a folder called tmp  inside that there is an another folder called pids   That file contains the server pid file  Simply delete that file  port automatically kill itself   I think this is the easy way

TL DR   lsof -ti tcp 3000 -sTCP LISTEN   xargs kill   If you re in a situation where there are both clients and servers using the port  e g      lsof -i tcp 3000 COMMAND     PID         USER   FD   TYPE             DEVICE SIZE OFF NODE NAME node       2043 benjiegillam   21u  IPv4 0xb1b4330c68e5ad61      0t0  TCP localhost 3000- gt localhost 52557  ESTABLISHED  node       2043 benjiegillam   22u  IPv4 0xb1b4330c8d393021      0t0  TCP localhost 3000- gt localhost 52344  ESTABLISHED  node       2043 benjiegillam   25u  IPv4 0xb1b4330c8eaf16c1      0t0  TCP localhost 3000  LISTEN  Google    99004 benjiegillam  125u  IPv4 0xb1b4330c8bb05021      0t0  TCP localhost 52557- gt localhost 3000  ESTABLISHED  Google    99004 benjiegillam  216u  IPv4 0xb1b4330c8e5ea6c1      0t0  TCP localhost 52344- gt localhost 3000  ESTABLISHED    then you probably don t want to kill both   In this situation you can use -sTCP LISTEN to only show the pid of processes that are listening  Combining this with the -t terse format you can automatically kill the process   lsof -ti tcp 3000 -sTCP LISTEN   xargs kill

I made a little function for this  add it to your rc file   bashrc   zshrc or whatever   function kill-by-port     if     1            then     kill -9   lsof -ni tcp   1    awk  FNR  2 print  2      else     echo  Missing argument  Usage  kill-by-port  PORT    fi     then you can just type kill-by-port 3000 to kill your rails server  substituting 3000 for whatever port it s running on   failing that  you could always just type kill -9   cat tmp pids server pid  from the rails root directory

Possible ways to achieve this    top  The top command is the traditional way to view your system   s resource usage and see the processes that are taking up the most system resources  Top displays a list of processes  with the ones using the most CPU at the top   ps  The ps command lists running processes  The following command lists all processes running on your system   ps -A   You could also pipe the output through grep to search for a specific process without using any other commands  The following command would search for the Firefox process   ps -A   grep firefox   The most common way of passing signals to a program is with the kill command   kill PID of target process   lsof  List of all open files and the processes that opened them   lsof -i -P   grep -i  listen  kill -9 PID   or   lsof -i tcp 3000
