23.01 Squid issue
-
@jonathanlee said in 23.01 Squid issue:
I understand I just keep thinking that something within your configuration is bonked up. You know how when you reinstall a package all your settings stay, if that config is bonked up it will make it appear that the package is messed up. I just keep thinking back to how my configuration was missing a section and kept doing the same thing until I found out that reverse proxy needed to be saved again, it was showing as missing, did not matter how many times I reinstalled the package it would fail until I fixed the configuration.
So, how I can completly remove SquidGuard in a way to make a clean install (without old configurations)?
I already tried some instructions, but did not work. -
@hugoeyng (/cf/conf/config.xml) rename with a .old after add patches and than rename it back to .xml maybe, if not revert it back. @stephenw10 would that work?
-
@jonathanlee I am sorry, but I can not agree your suggestion. I did waht you sugested , but did not work.
Could you send a config.xml that is working with squidGuard? I will replace it in my installation. -
@hugoeyng sure I can I will have to delete my password as it shows in clear text on the config file. How can I send it to you
-
@jonathanlee you can paste here or send to my e-mail
-
@hugoeyng what is your email?

@hugoeyng security !!!
I would recommend you guys private message each other your contact emails -
@hugoeyng I sent you a copy of my config file. I hope that helps please don't share it with anyone else. I hope that helps you secure your system and get your URL blocker working again. Use it with a dif checker to see what is bonked up. I was somewhat worried to share this as it's everything, but then I thought, what is the goal? Well, it's to help secure systems with cyber security as the end result. I am 1. just running this at my home it's not really a super secure environment, so no big deal if I share it. I hope that helps you in some way as people are generally good.

@jonathanlee It got worse

@jonathanlee Finally!! Everything working fine.
A few minutes ago the upgrade of Squid and squidGuard
was made available and corrected the issue we were trying to fix.Thank you, Jonathan and Stephen.

@hugoeyng @stephenw10 Is this of any concern I just noticed this?

It's a concern, yes. But we are not removing it from our repo any time soon. If we did Squidguard would fail and we would rework it with something else.

@stephenw10 Just clarification, are you saying that if need be you (netgate) would try and find a workaround?
-
Yes, if Squidguard broke because some dependency was no longer viable we would look to correct that.
