What should I do if "Kill server failed" is displayed?

Symptom

After the hdc kill command is executed, the message "Kill server failed: operation not permitted" is displayed.

Possible Causes

The hdc server is started by another program in the background with a higher permission than that of the hdc kill command.

Solution

  1. Windows: Choose Task Manager > Details , and terminate hdc.exe.
  2. Run the ps -ef |grep hdc command to find the process ID of the background program that executes hdc, and then run the sudo kill -9 process ID command to kill the process.
