pls help

You can see that your port is already in use.

  1. sudo supervisorctl stop all
  2. sudo service nginx stop
  3. bench start

if not enable:
sudo systemctl enable supervisor

or

sudo service supervisor stop
sudo service supervisor start

#7

Regarding your issue, 127.0.0.1:12000 and 127.0.0.1:11000 are already used, type sudo lsof -i -P -n | grep LISTEN to know the used IP addresses, and show the output then kill it manually, if nothing important is using it kill it so that supervisor uses that IP address
netstat -lnp | grep 'tcp .*IPADDRESS:PORT' | sed -e 's/.*LISTEN *//' -e 's#/.*##' | xargs kill this is not a very clean way, but it works

Rebooting the OS might work sometimes, because you will start fresh, but that’s a lazy solution, and you wouldn’t know what is the cause and how you solved the issue.

Unable to run bench start command
#8

Thnx for your support

#9

Solution that worked for me:

"sudo lsof -t -i tcp:12000 -s tcp:listen | sudo xargs kill"

Note: This command is used to kill any process running on the said port. Tip: Replace the port number with the one from the error
