How to stop the local jekyll server

Question

I just created my first Jekyll project locally. My server is running, but I forgot to use the automatic flag. So now I want to stop the server and restart it using the flag. However, on my command line, after starting the server, I did not receive a new prompt, so I cannot enter any new commands. I'm not very used to the command line, so I would really like to know what I should do! I use Mac OS X and terminal.app if that matters!

Answer 1

You can stop it with CTRL + C.

Answer 2

ps aux |grep jekyll |awk '{print $2}' | xargs kill -9
