Sysadmin Linode migrated my server, NGINX fails to start

Kind of curius how this happened.
Linode migrated my server to a newer datacenter and my domains all have the same IP.

Upon trying to start nginx, I get the error:

Code (Text):

Starting nginx (via systemctl):  Job for nginx.service failed because the control
process exited with error code. See "systemctl status nginx.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details
[FAILED]

Troubleshooting with the first command reveals:

Code (Text):

● nginx.service - SYSV: Nginx is an HTTP(S) server, HTTP(S) reverse proxy and IMAP/POP3 proxy server
   Loaded: loaded (/etc/rc.d/init.d/nginx; bad; vendor preset: disabled)

I don't really know what to make of this error.

 

Awesome! You're a life saver (and a server saver)
Recompiling NGINX fixed the problem.

Guess it's time to update PHP as well. Any reason to NOT upgrade PHP 7.0.x to 7.1.x?
