How to stop plackup

I'm trying to develop web pages for the first time, so please bear with me. I'm following the tutorial explained here- https://metacpan.org/pod/distribution/Dancer2/lib/Dancer2/Tutorial.pod

I ran plackup to start the application using plackup app.psgi. When I loaded localhost:5000 I saw that the webpage had few missing fields so I stopped plackup using Ctrl+Z.

Now when I use plackup app.psgi, I get the error- 

failed to listen to port 5000: Address already in use at /usr/local/share/perl/5.22.1/HTTP/Server/PSGI.pm line 103.

When I go to localhost:5000, the page shows it is loading but nothing appears.

How do I close/exit plackup gracefully? Is there any other to start and stop Dancer2 applications?

Ctrl+Z doesn't stop an application, it's paused. Use Ctrl+C to stop it.

You may also start Plackup as plackup -r app.psgi to automatically reload source files as you change them.
