SSL_get_error() is an OpenSSL function used to retrieve status of
various SSL-related operations. It is completely unrelated to the
HTTP return codes you are seeing.

When nginx is configured as a reverse proxy, HTTP status codes
like 200 and 401 are usually returned by the upstream server, and
only proxied by nginx. First of all, you may want to make sure
that this is what happens in your case. Relevant information for
sure can be found in the debug log, or you can use the
$upstream_status variable to get the details without debugging
(http://nginx.org/r/$upstream_status). And, as long as responses
are indeed returned by the upstream server, you may want to start
looking at the upstream server instead.

Hope this helps.
