python - Conda + Flask: server does not stop

Question

I am learning Flask and i use anaconda to set up the envirnonment.

Anyway i managed to run the server and i stopped it from the terminal Control+C.

When i try to start the server again i get a message that

OSError: [Errno 98] Address already in use

Keep in mind, i am using Ubuntu. I had a similar error when i was running node. After i killed the server, the service would still listen to that port, so what i did was :

pkill -9 node

to make sure that the service had stopped.

So i figured i would do the same in my situation.

I typed ps aux | grep python and i got these processes:

The first two that is user root, reference the /usr/bin/python3.8 binary, which is the satnadra python insallation. Since i am using anaconda, its probably not that one.

Since i am using anaconda, what exactly do i have to do, in order to kill the flask server?
