Relevant code:

proxy_cache_valid 200 301 302 1d;

proxy_cache_use_stale error timeout invalid_header updating http_500
http_502 http_503 http_504;

proxy_cache_background_update on;

proxy_cache_lock on;





The URL in question is obviously cached for 1 day. 15 minutes after the day
is over, the proxy gets a request and tries to refresh the content but is
met with an error (500) from the backend. In this case, will it continue to
serve stale until it gets a proper new 200 content?
