Close Socket in Django - Error: [Errno 48] Address already in use

Question

I accidentally created an infinite loop on an api call. It got out of hand and I had to shut it down [control + C].

now when I do

$ python manage.py runserver

I get

Validating models...

Django version 1.5.1, using settings 'summertime.settings'
Development server is running at http://127.0.0.1:8000/
Quit the server with CONTROL-C.
Error: [Errno 48] Address already in use

Does anyone know how to reset the socket? Can I just shut down my computer

to see if you already have runserver going use

ps -ef | grep runserver

to kill it use

pkill -9 -f runserver

(pkill kills things by name)

You have two options the first one is choice another port:

python manage.py runserver 8080

and the other one is killing the process in the port, to find the process:

sudo netstat -tulpn | grep :8000

to kill the process:

kill -9 <pid-of-process>
