If you guys are using embedded version on an appliance, the /tmp folder sits in RAM and gets dumped every reboot, and that's where the blacklists are stored.

So I've tried this :

@jimp:

To remove squid, squidguard, lightsquid, and anything else with 'squid' in its package name:

foreach (array_keys($config['installedpackages']) as $sec) { if (strpos($sec, "squid") !== false) unset($config['installedpackages'][$sec]); } write_config("Removed all squid-related settings");

And it did what I needed.

THANKS!

Hi Guys,

Problem Solved, thanks for the support…..

I have re-installed squid package and squid gaurd

its worked charm.......

Hi, Guys

My machine is an amd64 computer,  pfSense 2.2.2 from live-cd, I have been trying Squid3 for weeks, there were Snort, pfBlockerNG and Squid3,  3 packages under pfSense, all clean installed, but can't surf the internet unless I turn off the Transparent HTTP Proxy mode, all I get are the following error:

ERROR
The requested URL could not be retrieved

The following error was encountered while trying to retrieve the URL: http://www.google.ca

Connection to 127.0.0.1 failed.

The system returned: (60) Operation timed out

The remote host or network may be down. Please try the request again.

Your cache administrator is admin@localhost.

Also, the Antivirus never works for me.  Does Antivirus have to be worked with Transparent HTTP Proxy mode turned on?

Thanks for any helps.

That leads to the attached error in the logs, with proxy stopping (after the status went to running).

@deddric:

Same isue here..anyone got it working?

/d

This appears to be ongoing.  I edited havp.inc to change the WORK_DIR and still not working.

Apt-cacher might be a better fit for you.  I've been running squid3 in a corporate environment and my hit rate is never above 7% no matter how much I fiddle with the squid config.  However, I have heard good results when caching Linux updates in general since they don't play games with the filenames of the updates like with Windows Updates and other A/V updates.

Ya, unfortunately the URL keeps changing, but isnt that what dynamic content is? to catch even changing URLs?

Thanks m8 for sharing the solution. I also had that problem with reverse proxy + Dynamic IP address.

Likewise, I get exactly the same error in my system logs and when I arrive in the morning I find the squid service in a 'stopped' state. A manual start fixes everything again, but it's annoying having to do this every morning.

My system log:

Thanks all for the replys :-)
I'll try that and lets se if that work :)

Best Regards :-)

any replay?

Either tell  squid to use  dns servers of your vpn provider, see squid  doc for exact  configuration parameters, or assign the vpn lan clients  your vpn provider dns by dhcp. Or both.
