just noticed Bite Size Command Line came out 7 years ago, I still sometimes forget the syntax for lsof and have to look it up at wizardzines.com/comics/lsof/ :)

A local mobile backend won't start because port 3000 is busy? Select listeners:

kill $(lsof -t -iTCP:3000 -sTCP:LISTEN)

Free a port with lsof and start a fresh server
Find and stop a local TCP listener with lsof, then start a fresh server. A quick fix for macOS and Linux.

tidy little bash alias you can use to keep yourself from eternally googling how to kill the hanging process at :3000 :)

A bash function code snippet showing how to kill a process at a given port. Text reads: function killport { echo '🚨 Killing all processes at port' $1 lsof -ti tcp:$1 | xargs kill }

Linux can also dump all opened files and the associated programs that have them open using the "lsof" utility. You can grep (filter) the output for the path(s) to the USB drive(s).

My underrated Linux pick is the lsof command. It tells you exactly which files are open and which processes are using them. Insanely powerful and useful in everyday troubleshooting 😎👇 #cybersecurity #infosec #sysadmin

another trick is sudo lsof -n and there's a file size column to sort by

This is useful. Made me create a general fn:
Text editor showing: wtf() { lsof -i tcp:"$1" }

🚩Exatamente isso....Esquerda cirandeira...
Esquerda que a direita ama..

🚩Isso é perfeito para ilustrar esta esquerda que bloqueia, resmunga, fala mal do Lula mais se beneficia do que ele faz.

🚩Falou tudo...tudinho mesmo...👏👏

🚩Perfeito Marcelo👏...

`lsof` has possibly the worst manpage of any utility I have ever used.

How do you check if a #Linux TCP port is open without the usual tools (netstat, ss, nc, curl, nmap, telnet, lsof, tcpdump)?
Try it out on a live server with our latest easy scenario "Porto" sadservers.com/scenario/porto

You're running Laravel and Vite. Both report green. The queue worker logs say it's processing, but nothing's moved in twenty minutes. You check lsof. You check ports. You kill what you think is the old Node process. Still stuck.
