When I attempt to start my rails server from my local machine, I get the following error message.

This error occurred suddenly and I'm not sure what the cause of it could be. When I looked online I noticed that the issue could be another service running on the port 3000, but when I try and run 'lsof -i tcp:3000' I get no results.
Within puma.rb, I define.
port ENV.fetch("PORT") { 3000 }
rackup DefaultRackup
port ENV['PORT'] || 3000
environment ENV['RACK_ENV'] || 'development'
When I change the port value to something such as 8080 the server will run. I am confused as to why the server will not launch on port 3000. Every command I have attempted to run has shown me no services running on that port.
Try the following:
> sudo ps ax | grep rails
#1338 pts/1 Sl+ 0:06 /usr/bin/ruby2.3 bin/rails c
#1707 pts/0 Rl+ 0:07 /usr/bin/ruby2.3 bin/rails s
> sudo kill -9 1707
> rails s
