Nginx won't stop

Hello everyone,

I've spent the last few hours on what I thought was the end of a
Rails/Passenger/Nginx setup but I have had absolutely no luck.

When I try to restart nginx (using /etc/init.d/nginx restart) I get:

Restarting nginx: nginx: [emerg] bind() to 0.0.0.0:80 failed (98:
Address already in use)
nginx: [emerg] bind() to 0.0.0.0:80 failed (98: Address already in use)
nginx: [emerg] bind() to 0.0.0.0:80 failed (98: Address already in use)
nginx: [emerg] bind() to 0.0.0.0:80 failed (98: Address already in use)
nginx: [emerg] bind() to 0.0.0.0:80 failed (98: Address already in use)
nginx: [emerg] still could not bind()
nginx.

If I stop the server, it seems successful, but if I run the command
"lsof -i :80" as root I see:

COMMAND  PID   USER   FD   TYPE DEVICE SIZE/OFF NODE NAME
nginx   2801   root    6u  IPv4   7489      0t0  TCP *:www (LISTEN)
nginx   2802 nobody    6u  IPv4   7489      0t0  TCP *:www (LISTEN)

If I manually kill the nginx process and then start it, it works but
does NOT take into account any changes I've made to my configuration
files. So far, I seem completely unable to make any changes to my
configuration work. Even removing default from sites-enabled did
nothing.

At this point I'm so frustrated I'm close to heaving my computer out a
window. Any ideas?!
