Jonathan Moore updated HTTPCLIENT-992:
--------------------------------------
Attachment: stale-responses-to-explicit-requests.patch
The attached patch addresses this issue by either propagating the IOException
(for no-cache requests) or by generating a 504 (Gateway Timeout) error.
This patch is contributed to the ASF with the permission of my employer.
> cache should not generate stale responses to requests explicitly requesting
> first-hand or fresh ones

>
> The current implementation will serve a stale response in the case that it
> has a stale cache entry but revalidation with the origin fails. However, the
> RFC says we SHOULD NOT do this if the client explicitly requested a
> first-hand or fresh response (via no-cache, max-age, max-stale, or min-fresh).
