Fastcgi cache bypass empty body

Server NGINX
1

Hi All,
currently we are using nginx with fastcgi_cache with php backend. For
some conditions php returns an empty body (that we can not find the
cause) but sends some headers and nginx thinks it is valid. So it stores
the file which results to an empty response for upcoming requests.

Cached response from backend is attached, is there a configuration
option to prevent this?

p.s. I changed the site name to in attachment.

Perhaps using the embedded Lua module you can capture the response
and, for example, set ‘X-Accel-Expires: 0’, header for that request or
set a variable that is evaluated by fastcgi_cache_bypass.

then define:

fastcgi_cache_bypass $no_cache;

Check: Lua | NGINX

No, there is no such option.
