Killing abandoned process on Heroku
Thanks James!! I needed to update my Heroku client first, and it worked like a charm.
$ sudo gem install heroku
$ heroku ps #to view processes
$ heroku stop <process name here>
I noticed a new ps:stop
command added to the Heroku command line client a few days ago:
https://github.com/heroku/heroku/commit/a6d9eb7f314bf2c5f162a508e8d764286fb577bb
I'm not sure if that change made it into version 2.9.0 but it would be worth a try.
Update
This is now in the Heroku Toolbelt. Just run:
heroku ps:stop <process id from heroku ps>
Example:
heroku ps:stop run.8729
