I am currently experiencing an issue using the on the fly upgrade feature of nginx. I am attempting the upgrade going from 1.4.1 to 1.8.1 on Ubuntu 12.04. Here is the process I am utilizing:
Here is initial look at my running nginx: /etc/nginx# ps aux | grep nginx root 18779 0.5 0.6 416156 26756 ? Ss 05:24 0:00 nginx: master process /usr/sbin/nginx www-data 18780 0.0 0.8 424648 35528 ?

However the last step when shutting down the old master process. I am getting unexpected behavior: /etc/nginx# sudo kill -s QUIT 18779 Result: /etc/nginx# ps aux | grep nginx root 31133 0.0 0.0 9384 944 pts/2 S+ 05:31 0:00 grep --color=auto nginx The QUIT signal seems to be killing both the old master pid as well as the new master and all of the new master's workers. I also do a pstree and it looks like the old master is the parent for the new master and its workers. Am I doing anything wrong in regards to the on the fly upgrade process which is causing this behavior and or could something else on the box cause this sort of thing to occur. Benji
