deployed to heroku, can't see project in development

I built a rails app and successfully deployed it to heroku

Now I would like to access the development version to make changes on my local machine

When I rails s I get the error:

A server is already running. Check /home/username/myApp/tmp/pids/server.pid

That file has one line that reads 2673

What can I do to start the rails server while the app is hosted on heroku?

 rm /home/username/myApp/tmp/pids/server.pid

Then

 rails s

If it is not working

If you want to kill rails server process on port 3000 (which is what webrick normally uses), type this in your terminal to find out the PID of the process:

 $ lsof -wni tcp:3000

Then, use the number in the PID column to kill the process:

 $ kill -9 PID

Then 

  rails s

Hope you will be able to run rails server again in your local m/c
