It sounds to me like your application is sending back headers that instruct Nginx not to cache the response. Can you provide full HTTP headers that are coming back in the response?

Well, that's not strictly true I guess depending on how your caching is configured (I think this is affected by the proxy_cache_min_uses directive).
