How can I stop ZooKeeper on Ubuntu?
You could try:
sudo service zookeeper stop
to stop the process. If it does not work you could check this link:
Stop ZooKeeper. On the ZooKeeper host machine, execute the following command:
su - zookeeper -c "export ZOOCFGDIR=/etc/zookeeper/conf ; export ZOOCFG=zoo.cfg ;source /etc/zookeeper/conf/zookeeper-env.sh ; /usr/lib/zookeeper/bin/zkServer.sh stop"
If above commands do not stop the Zookeeper and the kill -9 is also not able to stop then there is perhaps a zombie process. You could check this Q&A how to stop such processes if that is the case.
From the zookeper root directory (cd ~/zookeeper-3.4.6
) run the following command
sudo bin/zkServer.sh stop
