Question

I’m running my program in Linux server using:

$  nohup <your_script> &

It keeps running as I wanted. But I want to stop it. Do anybody know how to do it?

Answer 1

Find the process ID, then kill the process:

ps aux | grep <your_script>

The second number is your PID, take that number and pass it to kill:

kill -9 <PID>

Alternatively, you can also use killall:

killall <your_script>
