Squid: "Undefined symbol "_ZTVNSt3__117bad_function_callE" after upgrade to 2.8

KOM

I also have this issue (tried upgrading this morning and had to roll back). No idea if this works as I can't try again until tomorrow.

@KOM

This worked for me, but I don't understand why and if this lib can cause any problems later on.

KOM

@guilhermemulato That's why I'm not moving forward with 2.8.0 until they fix this issue.

@kom that did not resolve the issue for me. Seeing a few other 2.8 gremlins - might look to downgrade for a bit.

KOM

Apparently just uninstalling then reinstalling squid will fix this issue. The new squid cleans up files left behind by old squid.

Is this issue fixed if you reinstall squid after updating?

Before reinstalling, you need to move the library so that it's no longer present in /usr/lib (e.g. by running "mv /usr/lib/libc++.so.1 /root").

Hmm so should the order be
uninstall squid,
update pfsense + reboot
mv /usr/lib/libc++.so.1 /root
install squid

@aGeekhere

Yes, you can do it in the mentioned order.

KOM

@aGeekhere I just tried it. It does not fix the problem. I'm also not comfortable with the 'move lib somewhere else' fix as I don't know what side-effects it may have and I don't know how a future upgrade will handle it.

aGeekhere

@KOM Has the issue been added to the bug tracker?

KOM

@aGeekhere No idea.

@aGeekhere

Update, will not be fixed as squid is deprecated from pfSense

@aGeekhere They just release Squid 7 and it is stable if you want to check it out

"The Squid HTTP Proxy team is very pleased to announce the availability
of the Squid-7.1 release!

This release is, we believe, stable enough for general production use.
We encourage all users of any previous major version of Squid to upgrade to it,
as well as users of beta version 7.0.X.

It can be downloaded from GitHub, at
https://github.com/squid-cache/squid/releases/tag/SQUID_7_1

Since version 6, Squid offers:

better support for overlapping IP ranges and wildcard domains in acl
countless security, portability, and documentation fixes

Since version 6, some previously deprecated features have been removed:

Edge Side Includes (ESI)
access to the cache manager using the cache_object:// scheme - use
http instead
the squdclient tool - use curl
http://<squid-address>/squid-internal-mgr/menu instead
the cachemgr.cgi tool
the purge tool - use the http PURGE method instead
Ident protocol support
basic_smb_lm_auth and ntlm_smb_lm_auth helpers - use Samba's
ntlm_auth instead

Further details can be found in the release notes and in the changelog

Please remember to run "squid -k parse" when testing the upgrade to a new
version of Squid. It will audit your configuration files and report
any identifiable issues the new release will have in your installation
before you "press go".

If you encounter any issues with this release please file a bug report at
https://bugs.squid-cache.org/

"I got as far as this with the make clean install no matter what I do I can’t get this package installed. I have tried pkg install heimdal same error after install and pkg install krb5 and pkg install krb5-devel. I don’t know what I am doing wrong it does the make clean for a while and crashes for the bootstrap version the other one I could get going

Please report the problem to timp87@gmail.com maintainerl and attach the

it gets so far along and fails with this error.
