Auto refresh for expired content?

[mkuehn]

Hi Roman,
hi Francis,

here comes my production config - i made a few tests the last hours, it
always come to the same point - if proxy_cache_background_update is on,
nginx devilvers only the cached content and is not able to fetch a fresh
copy (dont know why) - i tried local files, i tried my production node.js
backend, i even tried an external server as proxy_path - always the same
result... :/
I hope you find something wrong in my configs and then everything is fine ;)
:)
I use centos with nginx/1.12.0

Best regards,
Maik
