Wallet RPC error (internal error: "wallet.keys" is opened by another wallet program)

Question

I try to connect to a remote node with monero-wallet-rpc.

Every guide that has been shown was how to connect via monero-wallet-gui or monero-wallet-cli.

I specifically need monero-wallet-rpc.

Unfortunately this does not help: Is there any remote node list to connect simplewallet?.

When I connect to a remote node via monero-wallet-gui or monero-wallet-cli, I cannot connect my wallet anymore because the wallet is already used by the running process:

E Error locking fd 16: 11 (Resource temporarily unavailable)
E Failed to lock receivewallet.keys: Resource temporarily unavailable
E !is_keys_file_locked(). THROW EXCEPTION: error::wallet_internal_error
E Wallet initialization failed: internal error: "wallet.keys" is opened by another wallet program

How do I connect my wallet to a remote node using monero-wallet-rpc?

You can only have your wallet files open by one process at a time. So kill the process you don't want to have it opened by.
