Error 404 if url contains "star"

[B.R.]

The only way to know would have been to have a look at the processes table
before killing everyone and restarting.
If you nginx through the package management of your distribution and
service scripts to manage nginx processus, there is little-to-no chance you
got multiplt nginx masters running. It is however possible to spawn
multiple nginx (master) instances if you manage you processes manually (and
is useful when you do an on-the-fly upgrade). No multiple instances can
bind to listen on the same ports though.

It would have been interesting to dig further, since you are saying the
configuration was valid (as after restart nginx accepted/loaded it).

In the current state, there is not much ability to conclude on anything.
Maybe could you try to reproduce the problem by recreating your old
configuration, loading it and trying to load the current configuraiton
again?
Remember to use `nginx -t` have a look at nginx' error logs on reload to
check the configuration has been accepted.
