Stopping rails server doesn't kill process

Question

Every time I stop my rails server with CTRL-Z, the process keeps running and I always have to kill -9 it in order to start the server again.

How can I make sure that the process is killed when I stop the server?

Answer 1

use CRTL + C short key to stop the rails server, than there will be no need to use kill 9 every time.

Answer 2

Try to use ctrl+c to stop your server always so that there is no need for using kill -9 to kill the process
