While installing rethinkdb, I'm get some socket error. How do I fix the error?

I tried:

$rethinkdb
error: TCP socket creation failed for port 29015: Address already in use.

Did you already install RethinkDB? I have this problem, when I installed the RethinkDB and I started the service. Then I followed the instructions on the meteor's docs, and when I typed the rethinkdb I got this error message too, because a rethinkdb instance was already running.

The rethinkdb command will start a new rethinkdb instance! Only one rethinkdb instance can runs.

You can stop rethinkdb with this command: sudo /etc/init.d/rethinkdb stop

Or you can check that you have a running rethinkdb with this url: http://localhost:8080/
