pid file location even after setting pid directive

[Wandenberg Peixoto]

The configuration file used to start the server is the same been used to
stop it?
If you start as
nginx -c /some/confi/file.conf
and stop as
nginx -c /some/confi/file.conf -s stop
it should work.

If you are only doing
nginx -s stop
it will use default configuration that point to another pid file
