@C0RR0SIVE said in Squid proxy NONE/503:
I just use Shallalist for my SquidGuard, it helps block some common annoyances really, don't think it has been updated in some time though. More useful if you have kids trying to get to porn sites more than anything IMO.
Yeah, I use Unifi AP's and a Captive Portal in my Unifi software that requests they setup the proxy on their device using a proxy.pac file that's stored on a local webserver. When they pull from that file they go through HTTP/S just fine. If they don't they just get rejected on 443/80. Haven't had an issue with guests doing that so far. I also make sure I link to instructions stored on the local web server so they can follow those.
I have done some testing, but nothing concrete yet... I was on 2.4.5, and have been having some other issues with it. I decided to compile a version of 2.4.4-p3 and installed that, then restored all my settings. So far SQUID + SquidGuard has been rather stable and fast. I suspect the issue isn't just SQUID, but 2.4.5. Can you confirm what version of PFSense you are on?
I still see 503 errors, but those look purely SquidGuard and PFBlocker related (as in, what I am seeing, the URL is in my SquidGuard list or tied to a list on PFBlocker).
I see. I use Unifi AP's/controller too so we pretty have a similar setup. I have to play around with Squidguard when this issue gets fixed.
I'm also at pfsense 2.4.5 but I'm not sure when those 503 errors started showing up but I also highly suspect it's after the 2.4.5 upgrade.
