I don't know the port used by your application. It depends on your code. In this example, I will assume the port is 3000.

You need to verify if the port is already took on your system. To do that:

  • On linux: sudo netstat -nltp | grep 3000
  • On OSX: sudo lsof -i -P | grep 3000

If you have a result, you need to kill the process (kill <pid>).

You should check if pm2 list returns 0 process. In addition, when you do a pm2 stopAll, the socket is not released. Don't forget to do a pm2 kill to be sure the daemon is killed.

$ pm2 kill
Daemon killed
