error info: "nginx.service: failed to parse pid from file 
/run/nginx/nginx.pid: invalid argument" is caused by race condition between

systemd and nginx.  And this error will not caused problem except scary log

This should be a known problem: 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nginx/+bug/1581864

other distro like ubuntu, fedora, should also have this problem, I can 
google people report this error on different distro.

ubuntu 16.04 use this as a workaround.
