If you are using a more modern version of Rails and it uses Puma as the web server, you can run the following command to find the stuck Puma process:

ps aux | grep puma

It will result in output similar to this:

85923 100.0  0.8  2682420 131324 s004  R+    2:54pm   3:27.92 puma 3.12.0 (tcp://0.0.0.0:3010) [my-app]
92463   0.0  0.0  2458404   1976 s008  S+    3:09pm   0:00.00 grep puma

You want the process that is not referring to grep. In this case, the process ID is 85923.

I can then run the following command to kill that process:

kill -9 85923
