@K-e-d-i commented on GitHub (Oct 7, 2023):

It registers itself as a service on my machine, try systemctl stop ollama.service and to start it again you can systemctl start ollama.service.

You can see here at the bottom where it is added as a startup service.

@jmorganca stopping the server when the server exits and starting again when ollama serve is called would be nice, or you can mention this in the readme to avoid future issues like this.

I know this is not the proper solution to kill the service, but killing the service as suggested above didn't work for me.
I ended up using sudo killall -s 9 ollama - only thing that worked for me.
