Hi friends... Following shell script part will find the process id which process running on a given port (e.g. in my example it's 8080) and kill the process. x=$(netstat -nap | grep java | grep :8080 | awk '{printf("%s\n", substr($7, 1, index($7, "/") - 1))}') if [$x eq '']; then echo "---> [INFO] --- Application server not running in port 8080..." else kill -9 $x echo "---> [INFO] --- Application server running in port 8080 and kill in process #" $x fi
