      I want to ask how to give an exception for a website after activating proxy server because some websites are not opening even squid server is functioning successfully.
      Thank you

        @emad4 I can try and help.
        So what is your set up? You have a intercepting proxy or a transparent proxy?
        Are you using squidguard for url filtering ?
        What do you mean some websites arent opening? What error message are you getting?

          Thank you michmoor
          I enabled transparent proxy server and I am not using squid guard

          The service is working without any problems but some websites are not opening but when I disabled the service of proxy, those websites open normally

            @emad4 Transparent proxy is not a good solution when trying to intercept HTTPS sites.
            Either be explicit with the proxy or dont use one.

                @emad4 If using HTTP only and not HTTP(S) then a transparent proxy works without issue.
                What do the squid Real time logs show?
