Minor upgrade issue - "Port '2368' is in use"

[fehwalker]

The past two times I’ve upgraded Ghost (2.13.1 and 2.14.3) I’ve gotten the error below. Ghost is not running when I check, and simply running ‘ghost start’ after works as expected. Looks like the Ghost process is just not shutting down fast enough for the speedy upgrade process? Maybe a retry or two could be added?

Thanks,
Bryan

For the 2.15.0 upgrade I tried stopping Ghost before running the update, and it worked as expected, including Ghost running properly after the upgrade finished.
