How can I stop redis-server?

Question

I apparently have a redis-server instance running because when I try to start a new server by entering redis-server, I\'m greeted with the followin

Answer 1

Option 1: go to redis installation directory and navigate to src , in my case :

/opt/redis3/src/redis-cli -p 6379 shutdown

where 6379 is the default port.

Option 2: find redis process and kill

ps aux | grep redis-server

t6b3fg   22292  0.0  0.0 106360  1588 pts/0    S+   01:19   0:00 /bin/sh /sbin/service redis start
t6b3fg   22299  0.0  0.0  11340  1200 pts/0    S+   01:19   0:00 /bin/sh /etc/init.d/redis start

And Then initiate kill:

kill -9 22292

kill -9 22299

I'm using Centos 6.7 , x86_64

hope it helps

Answer 2

Another way could be :

brew services stop redis

Answer 3

Try killall redis-server. You may also use ps aux to find the name and pid of your server, and then kill it with kill -9 here_pid_number.

Answer 4

If you know on what port it would be running(by default it would be 6379), you can use below command to get the pid of the process using that port and then can execute kill command for the same pid.

sudo lsof -i : <port> | awk '{print $2}'

the above command will give you pid.

kill <pid>;

This would shutdown your server.

Answer 5

On MacOSX,

This is what worked for me

/etc/init.d/redis restart

/etc/init.d/redis stop

/etc/init.d/redis start

Answer 6

You can try this code:

sudo kill -9 $(ps aux | grep 'redis' | awk '{print $2}')
