How to kill a process on a port on ubuntu

Question

I am trying to kill a process in the command line for a specific port in ubuntu.

If I run this command I get the port:

sudo lsof -t -i:9001
         


        

Answer 1

FOR UBUNTU 1- Find what application/process is using the pro, type:

sudo netstat -lpn |grep :8080

and press Enter.

You will get an output similar to this one

tcp6       0      0 :::8080                 :::*                    LISTEN      6782/java

2- I have got the process Id, which is 6782, now this is the process that is using port 8080.

3- Kill the process, type:kill 6782

kill 6782
