I'm trying to stop apache server on my macbook. I've tried the following <pre class="prettyprint"><code>$ sudo apachectl stop </code></pre> /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/org.apache.httpd.plist: Could not find specified service <pre class="prettyprint"><code>$ sudo launchctl unload -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/org.apache.httpd.plist </code></pre> /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/org.apache.httpd.plist: Could not find specified service What am i doing wrong?

<pre class="prettyprint"><code>sudo killall httpd </code></pre> This should work.

<code>sudo apachectl start</code> then <code>sudo apachectl stop</code> is what worked for me
