Thanks for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. We appreciate the difficulties you are facing, but this appears to be a "regular" (non-security) bug. I have unmarked it as a security issue since this bug does not show evidence of allowing attackers to cross privilege boundaries nor directly cause loss of data/privacy. Please feel free to report any other bugs you may find.

Hello.

It looks like your init script has a syntax error on it. If this is still a problem, then please include the /etc/init.d/nginx script and attach it to this bug. The error indicates that /etc/init.d/nginx has a lot of things it shouldn't have in it, which would explain why it's failing to work (the init script should *not* have any configuration in it, so somewhere along the lines an nginx site configuration syntax got into init, which is causing this problem.)
