I'm trying to configure an HAProxy backend to work with Google-CDN I see that I always get to the HAProxy backend and the cache is always MISS

This is google-cdn requests regarding headers: https://cloud.google.com/cdn/docs/caching#cacheability

and this is my HAProxy backend configurations (I've tried multiple sets of headers configuration, but never got an HIT):

    http-response set-header Cache-Control public;max-age=31536000
    http-response set-header Content-Length 260113322
#    http-request add-header Cache-Control public;max-age=31533000
#    http-request add-header Content-Length 26012101001

when I'm requesting the object in the browser these are the req\res headers:

Response Headers

alt-svc: clear
cache-control: public;max-age=31536000
content-length: 260113322

Your Cache-Control reaponse header is malformed. The values are separared with a comma (and optional whitespace included by convention) -- not a semicolon.

http-response set-header Cache-Control "public, max-age=31536000"

The quotes are absorbed by the HAProxy parser. Also valid:

(no space)

http-response set-header Cache-Control public,max-age=31536000

(space escaped)

http-response set-header Cache-Control public,\ max-age=31536000

There should normally be no need to add Content-Length in the proxy. If your origin server isn't automatically setting either Content-Length or Transfer-Encoding in the response, then your server should be fixed, upgraded, or replaced.

It might be because your response contains "Vary" header. HAPoxy says that they don't cache that type of responses.
