Hi all,
I would really appreciate it if you could help me with nginx.

The situation is:
Nginx (v. 1.14.2) redirects the request to the application server. In case this request with the POST method and the application server gives an error code 500, the response is transmitted to the client.
But nginx then makes a second request. Is there any way to disable execution of the second request by nginx?
Many thanks in advance.

Here is a part of nginx file:

#Makes upstream to the branch with response code 500
upstream test5 {
       server 127.0.0.1:90;
       keepalive 20;
}

#virtualhost that issues response code 500;
server {
   listen 90 default_server;
   server_name localhost;
   root /home/jetty/www;

       location @intercept_disabled {
               proxy_intercept_errors off;
               proxy_pass http://test5;
       }
   location /test500 {
       return 500;
       error_page 500 /500.html;
   }
}

# Redirection to virtualhost that issues response code 500;
       location /test500 {
           proxy_pass http://test5;
       }

So, in the response we see that nginx makes second request.
