Hi All,
I think it was due to the nature of the website, (i.e. cookies + json
updates) were playing role not to cache.
I did some changes and it started working (for forced cache rule.)
e.g. sub vcl_recv -> added some lookup for certain conditions.
and sub vcl_fetch -> added set beresp.ttl
But going into another type of trouble: i occasionally get 503 thrown
without any reason.
I have 2 server, i intentionally turned one off, health checkup shows
its sick (great), and sends request to alive one, but 1 out of 20 times
it throws 503.
_[I have added ulimit -n 10000 and restart for 4 times in 503, however
is there any particular reason behind this behaviour?]
