Your config has a lot of cruft, meaning a lot of bad Yoda stuff.

But the main issue is that you're proxying to fastcgi not to another
HTTP server, hence the cache to be used is fastcgi cache, not proxy
cache.

http://wiki.nginx.org/HttpFcgiModule#fastcgi_cache

Which apart from a few options has basically the same directives with
proxy replaced by fastcgi.
