Are errors cached in react-query?

Say i have a query in my component. and for some reason it returns an error. i see that if i travel back to that component, a request is not remade, even though my staleTime is set to 0. does that make sense? i thought that errors aren't saved into cache, and hence the query would be refetched?

errors are indeed refetched and not cached, so if you return a rejected promise from the queryFn, the next time you get to it, yo ushould see a refetch

weird, it's not refetching for me this is my global config: 
      queries: {
        gcTime: Infinity,
        retry: false,
        refetchOnWindowFocus: false
      queries: {
        gcTime: Infinity,
        retry: false,
        refetchOnWindowFocus: false
im a bit dumbfounded tbh, hadn't found any reason it wouldn't refetch

will try a sandbox and see if it reproduces thanks ❤️ A sandbox works as you say, probably something with my setup gonna try and research turned out i used a "tabs" component which didn't actually unmounted a component once it's not displayed, so the hooks weren't called again. thanks for the help
