stop hg serve on os x

How do I stop hg serve in OS X (server 10.6)?

I started it from开发者_Go百科 the terminal not in daemon mode. It worked fine, then I wanted to make some changes, so I did ctrl-Z to stop it. When I tried to start it again, it says...

abort: cannot start server at ':8000': Address already in use

I assume the process is already running and hasn't let go of the port. But in the activity monitor I can't find and "serve" or "hg" or "mercurial" processes to kill.

Help?

Do the following to find out the process id:

hgt $ ps -eaf | grep hg
  502 91004 90841   0   0:00.04 ttys007    0:00.11 /opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/Resources/Python.app/Contents/MacOS/Python /opt/local/bin/hg serve
  502 91032 90841   0   0:00.00 ttys007    0:00.00 grep hg

Kill the process

kill -9 91004

Next time use Ctrl-C to stop the server. :)

Ctrl-Z stops a process temporarily. If you stop something with Ctrl-Z, you can start it again by running fg to have it take over the terminal again, or bg to have it running in the background of the terminal. Otherwise, you can kill the server using pyfunc's answer. You can tell if the server is still working by opening up localhost:8000 in your browser, of course.

Check for the listening port typically 8000 for hg server

sudo lsof -i -n -P | grep LISTEN | grep 8000

Check the PID for hg search for hg and then python

ps -aef | grep hg | grep python | awk '{print $2}'

Now kill the PID you found

sudo kill -9 `ps -aef | grep hg | grep python | awk '{print $2}'`
