Have you checked your configuration has been loaded properly?

Most probably, either:
- your configuration is not loaded: check it with the -t nginx option, then
check your error log on reload to spot any message there
- your configuration file is not used, the default one is (you might ensure
you overwrote the right file or use the -c nginx option to specify your
configuration file). If you are using nginx >=1.9.2, you might wanna check
the new -T option so the loaded configuration is dumped on standard output
