but it keep on getting created on new port

 ps -aef | grep 2841

Can someone please help how to stop this process from keep on getting created? I tried re-start too but it didn't work.

Answer 1

It seems you have Zookeeper installed as a service.

You can stop the service issuing this command:

sudo bin/zkServer.sh stop

Or you can uninstall Zookeeper...
