How to kill Specific process on port

Let’s start the discussion about How to kill Specific process on port in following methods.

To list any process listening to the port 8000 run :

lsof -i:8000

To kill any process listening to the port 8000:

kill $(lsof -t -i:8000)

SIGKILL – terminate immediately/hard kill signal corresponds to -9: see List of Kill Signals and What does the -9 option in the kill command do? If no signal is given to kill, the TERM signal, often known as -15 or soft kill, is sent, which is sometimes insufficient to terminate a process.. Run :

kill -9 $(lsof -t -i:8000)

I hope the strategies listed above work for you. Happy coding and come back again.
