How to Customise Squid Error(s)

[Learner]

AOA
Dear All !
i have installed and configure squid on a FreeBSD server.
i define many rule with acl in squid.conf and http_access is deny for this access list (ACL).

Squid show ERR_ACCEESS_DENIED page to user when match the ACL.
I want show a other page, I have designed a webpage and replaced my page to ERR_ACCESS_DENIED page and copy to error folder, that work correct but squid add a message to under my page and show to user

Generated Fri, 31 Oct 2008 12:33:45 GMT by pxy.localhost.com.pk (squid/2.5.STABLE3)

what is solution for changeing the time from GMT to LocalTime or deleting this message from my page when squid show it.


Best Regards

It could be solved by adding these lines at the end of Error File.

<BR clear="all">
<HR noshade size="1px">
<ADDRESS>
Generated %t by %h (%s)
</ADDRESS>
</BODY></HTML>

For details visit : http://man.chinaunix.net/newsoft/squid/ ... AQ-19.html (Option: 19.10)


Also want to know that what If I wanna remove this last line

why don't you remove it and see what happens?

Dear lambda!

What Should I remove ?

By default there is no code added on the error page, these values are appended by default.

sorry, i must've misread your post. i see what the problem is now.

the docs say that if "%s" appears anywhere in the file, the "generated by ..." line won't be automatically appended. you could try hiding it, like this:

Code: Select all

<div style="display: none;">%s</div>

or like this:

Code: Select all

<!-- html comment %s -->

no normal browser will display the message, though people will be able to do a "view source" and see it.

an alternate solution is to recompile squid and replace the error text in src/errorpage.c (around line 70). ideally, you should use your distribution's squid source -- change it and install an updated package (apt-get source squid, for example).

if you want localtime instead of gmtime, add the html you posted up above, but change %T to %t.

Design template for your custom error message and replace one by one with template but make sure file name should be same and also take a good care of permission
