Hello, Anto:

That the way we use to solve what you encountered:
Compile nginx with 'cache_purge' module (module:
http://labs.frickle.com/nginx_ngx_cache_purge/)
Use 'proxy_cache' to store the generated static file instead of
'proxy_store', and when the file changed, the application server(CMS, I
think in your app) will purge that file actively.
Part of the configure file:

proxy_cache_path /cache/proxy_cache_dir levels=2:2 keys_zone=cache_one:500m
inactive=3d max_size=100g;
location ~ /purge(/.*)
{
allow 127.0.0.1;
allow 192.168.1.0/24;
deny all;
proxy_cache_purge cache_one $1;
}

Hope it helps.
