'''Kill the process by port number'''<ref>[https://stackoverflow.com/questions/11583562/how-to-kill-a-process-running-on-particular-port-in-linux How to kill a process running on particular port in Linux? - Stack Overflow], [https://linux.die.net/man/8/lsof lsof(8) - Linux man page]</ref>
* {{kbd | key=<nowiki>kill -9 $(lsof -ti:3000) 2>/dev/null</nowiki>}}: Force kill the process using port 3000. The {{kbd | key=2>/dev/null}} suppresses error messages if no process is found. Replace 3000 with your target port number.
* Alternative (shorter command): {{kbd | key=fuser -k 3000/tcp}}: Kill the process using TCP port 3000 (if {{kbd | key=fuser}} is available on your system)
Explanation:
* {{kbd | key=<nowiki>lsof -ti:3000</nowiki>}}: Find the process ID (PID) using port 3000
** {{kbd | key=-t}}: Output only the PID
** {{kbd | key=-i:3000}}: Filter by port 3000
* {{kbd | key=2>/dev/null}}: Redirects error messages (stderr) to {{kbd | key=/dev/null}} (discards them) Useful when no process is found on the port to avoid error output
* {{kbd | key=<nowiki>$(lsof -ti:3000)</nowiki>}}: Command substitution<ref>[https://www.gnu.org/software/bash/manual/html_node/Command-Substitution.html Command Substitution (Bash Reference Manual)]</ref>: executes the command inside {{kbd | key=$()}} and replaces it with the output
** First runs {{kbd | key=lsof -ti:3000}} to get the PID(s)
** Then substitutes the PID(s) into the {{kbd | key=kill -9}} command
** Example: if port 3000 is used by PID 12345, {{kbd | key=<nowiki>kill -9 $(lsof -ti:3000)</nowiki>}} becomes {{kbd | key=kill -9 12345}}
