i have configured squid 3.0
you need to describe the changes you've made to the configuration files.
where is problem?
squid has log files, probably in /var/log/squid on your system. read the last few lines of cache.log to see what the problem is.
plz tell me how can i configuring squid in fedora 9?
configure it to do what? play cricket?

Isn't it amazing how so many people can type "linuxpakistan.net" into their browsers but not "google.com"?

Squid logs will give you good picture if not start squid in debug mode and see where is the problem.

Next time make sure you give full details in your post about the problem. No fortune teller around to guess what is going on at your end.

squid error in detail

Post by alitoday »

actually i have configured squid on rhel 4 , it works well there. i copied squid.conf file to fedora 9, make some necessary changes.
my file is as:

visible_hostname squid
http_port 8080
cache_dir ufs /var/spool/squid 1000 16 256
cache_access_log /var/log/squid/access.log

acl net src 172.170.100.1-172.170.100.255

http_access allow net

# WELCOME TO SQUID 3.0.STABLE2
# ----------------------------
#
# This is the default Squid configuration file. You may wish
# to look at the Squid home page (http://www.squid-cache.org/)
# for the FAQ and other documentation.

......................... etc .........

when i use restart squid service terminal show this message:

[root@squid ~]# service squid restart
Stopping squid: ................ [ OK ]
2009/06/10 21:24:03| Processing Configuration File: /etc/squid/squid.conf (depth 0)
2009/06/10 21:24:03| Initializing https proxy context
Starting squid: . [ OK ]
[root@squid ~]#

and

tail windows shows:

Jun 10 21:24:02 squid squid[3327]: Squid Parent: child process 3329 exited with status 0
Jun 10 21:24:03 squid squid[3371]: Squid Parent: child process 3373 started
------

Did you run squid -z before starting the daemon?

Seems no issue with conf files running on separate linux distributions.
