servers with ruby

I was doing the following on the terminal:

script/server

it says the server host:3000 was being used,

when I typed it into web browser, the page loads but when I click on my environment the info doesn't show up. I get an error message

if I change the server by typing in

script/server -p 3001

for example, it works,

so my question is: how does one disconnect or erase the previous "3000" port so that I can use 3000 instead of 3001?

Is there a command line for this in the terminal?

Thanks.

Port 3000 is being used by something else, so you need to stop whatever process that is first. Probably that is another script/server instance, so kill it. If it isn't, well, you can try sudo lsof -i :3000 to try and figure it out... but it might be easier to just reboot your box and try again :)
