The notes on that page seem to work fine for me.

What precisely are you doing when you see the problem?

"start the new master process" should be something very like

kill -USR2 $(cat logs/nginx.pid)

After testing that things are as you expect, the next steps are like

kill -WINCH $(cat logs/nginx.pid.oldbin)
kill -QUIT $(cat logs/nginx.pid.oldbin)

If that fails for you, then probably more information about your versions,
environment, and error log will help identify the problem.

Good luck with it,
