[solved] squid non starting
-
I have had problems starting squid on my pfSense 1.2 box.
After searching the forums I have fixed various issues by:
- uninstalling the package, manually cleaning the warnings, and reinstalling
- manually changing owner:group of /var/squid/cache
- manually changing owner:group of /usr/local/etc/squid
- manually running "squid -z"
- manually removing two lines quick_abort_min and quick_abort_max from /usr/local/etc/squid/squid.conf
- manually adding two lines quick_abort_min and quick_abort_max with the squid default of 16 KB
Now it still wont start but the symptom is:
- /var/log/system.log reports started child process <some pid="">- /var/squid/log/cache.log reports started process <some other="" pid="">and Ready to receive requests.
- BUT a "ps ax" shows that none of those <pid>s are active…
Argh!</pid></some></some>

Had the same problem and lost several hours, but finally found a "fix".
Going to Proxy server > Traffic management and clicking on "Save" does the trick.
After that I am able to start and use squid.Hope this helps.

Yes and check the "Allow users on interface" option.

Thanks romany. That has done the trick. For good measure I have gone thru every proxy server settings page and pressed save.
Relief!!1!one! :D
