Python [Errno 98] Address already in use

Question

In my Python socket program, I sometimes need to interrupt it with Ctrl-C. When I do this, it does close the connection using socket.close().

Answer 1

Nothing worked for me except running a subprocess with this command, before calling HTTPServer(('', 443), myHandler):

kill -9 $(lsof -ti tcp:443)

Of course this is only for linux-like OS!
