Can't kill a process - stopping rails server

view full story
linux-howto

http://stackoverflow.com – I am trying to stop rails server from my console (i am using ubuntu) so following the related questions on stack, I tried Ctrl + C pgrep -l ruby and then kill -9 $the_right_pids (and also ps aux | grep ...) but none of these worked. Does anybody have an idea ? Update: I found a solution on a stack post and the issue seems be come from a ruby server bug (when using rubymine?), the solution seems not natural but it can do the trick : stop the process in the console and the refresh the browser with another localhost's port --> How to stop/kill server (development) in rubymine (HowTos)

Everlasting ruby process 6 weeks 3 days ago

I ma trying to kill the ruby process, but it is impossible. I am using Ubuntu, I clean my cache, I reboot my os, then the ruby server is running. But if I run pgrep -l ruby, I get some pid I am trying to kill with kill -9 $pid. But when I run again pgrep -l ruby, it everlastingly showing the same process I want to kill... Someone could help ?

On my Linux server I ran:

sudo thin start -p 80 -d

Now I'd like to restart the sever. The trouble is, I can't seem to get the old process to kill it.

I previously ran an two Ruby and Rails applications, one of them by using rails console command, the another one using Apache trough Phusion Passenger. Both applications ran in same IP, the only difference was the application running wih rails console was accesible from port 3000.

Now, I would like to run both apps with Apache, but I know what exactly configure to do that.

Hi Everyone, I am a new unix user. I started a qlogin session in SSH terminal, then I closed the window assuming that the qlogin session will be closed automatically. But it was still running. I tried to kill the process using kill ID or kill -9 ID, but the ID I got using ps aux | grep qlogin keeps changing. Does anyone have good suggestions on how to stop the qlogin process ?

I can't figure out how to kill this process. I ran du, but it took too long so I tried to kill it. It didn't die. I've tried SIGKILL, SIGSTOP, SIGINT, etc, with no effect (can't kill it, can't stop it).

I am trying to start the rails server using either: 'rails server -d' or even just 'rails' however I am getting the following error:

I'm trying to chase a bug on a Rails site and I've noticed that there are recurring Ruby processes which are hogging CPU and won't go away. I'd like to suss out what's starting them and how to either stop them or give them the resources they need to complete and get their work done.

Background: The server is Ubuntu 10.04 LTS. Ruby is 1.9.2-p290.
