Squid errors

[sullrich]

This actually was a server error.  Or package sync script stopped copying changes from CVS.

At any rate, everything is fixed now and the squid stuff should be on the latest version on the server now.

I'm guessing that the correct answer is to uninstall and then re-install the squid package?

Yep.

[BBMitch]

Just did a remove and install…
At the bottom of the package install screen in black on the grey background was this text:
Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_STRING in /etc/inc/pkg-utils.inc(426) : eval()'d code on line 1

Tried the same task again, got the same message about missing includes etc. when I pressed save on the first page of the config... perhaps the cause was the error above?

Thanks!
Still running 0.90 on that box - will upgrade to 94.4 today

My install was 100% fresh.  The first thing I did was install squid and start to configure it.

I am thinking I havn't seen these errors before or not I remember,  is because I have just used the upgrade option each time (except this time).  And it keeps all my settings even when you get the error.

Hi all!

Likewise, all references to "GSDF" should also be changed to "GDSF".

have pfsense .95a installed and just installed squid.

first time it's installed, i got misconfigured it and got lots of error.
so i removed it and install again.
this time it works fine.

but after reboot, it wont start up automatically.
i have to go to shell and type squid to start it

what to do to make it startup on every boot?

This version is not supported.  Upgrade to receive support.

[rexster]

fresh installed pfsense 1 beta
then directly install squid package only.

squid doesnt run at all.
i try see from shell, no /var/squid folder
there's a squid folder on /etc/local
but it's only contain 2 folders (logs and cache) and both folders are empty.

so, no log i can see.
the cache folder also not created yet.

i try squid -z but it gives out error: failed to create folder…

these steps you need to take to get squid 2.5.12 from the pfsense packages working with pfsense beta 1

pfSense console setup
8)  Shell

mkdir /var/squid
chown squid:squid /var/squid
mkdir /var/squid/logs
chown squid:squid /var/squid/logs
mkdir /var/squid/cache
chown squid:squid /var/squid/cache
mkdir /usr/local/etc/squid/advanced
chown squid:squid /usr/local/etc/squid/advanced
mkdir /usr/local/etc/squid/advanced/acls
chown squid:squid /usr/local/etc/squid/advanced/acls
touch /usr/local/etc/squid/advanced/acls/src_subnets.acl
chown squid:squid /usr/local/etc/squid/advanced/acls/src_subnets.acl
touch /usr/local/etc/squid/advanced/acls/src_unrestricted_ip.acl
chown squid:squid /usr/local/etc/squid/advanced/acls/src_unrestricted_ip.acl
squid -z
exit

pfSense console setup
11)  Restart webConfigurator

now config in pfsense browser
http://ipadress/pkg_edit.php?xml=squid_ng.xml&id=0

go back to consul
pfSense console setup
8)  Shell

squid
ps -ax | grep squid

if you see somving like this :
 4683  ??  Ss     0:00.00 squid
 4685  ??  S      0:00.19 (squid) (squid)
 4695  p0  S+     0:00.01 grep squid

squid is running

[rexster]

ok now squid runs fine.

still one problem.
how do i make it automatically start on each boot?

btw… one more issue...
even that squid does run, when i check the access.log file,
i only see access to http://my.ip.address
and all access to the internet doesn showed up there.

is this normal?

tnx
rex

[hoba]

Try starting it by using the hidden xml-options for the config.xml: http://faq.pfsense.com/index.php?sid=18492&lang=en&action=artikel&cat=10&id=38&artlang=en&highlight=hidden

This of course won't be needed later when the package is final.

[rexster]

can you explain more detailed…
exactly, what to put into config.xml, where to put it?

few issue i found:
transparent proxy doesnt seem to work (yet) ?
and proxy also refuse https protocol?

tnx
rex

[jeroen234]

here transparent proxy for poort 80 works but only with 3128 as squid poort on pfsense 
the log is on /var/squid/logs/access.log

check /var/squid/logs/cache.log for squid errors

to start squid from config.xml:
add <shellcmd>squid</shellcmd> to config.xml
look at the code below for where to put it

I just updated the squid INIT code to include this.  Please test again!

Speaking of this, we had yet another problem syncing packages.  Please try squid again, I've fixed a ton of errors and made sure that it is sycning.

Out of the box squid starts now for me.  Please let me know if this is not the case for anyone else, I really want squid working for 1.0.

Hi @all!

I've tried to use the captive portal together with squid in transparent mode. The captive portal was running before without any errors, but after I have installed squid I've got a lot of errors and squid refused the connection to any server on the wan-side.
Well, I've read the squid docs and faqs and there I've found, it isn't possible to run squid in transparent mode with authentification by acl, ldap and so on.
Now my question: Is it possible to run squid together with a captive portal?

Thanks and so long
Schnuffel

[jeroen234]

i uninstalled squid
removed leftovers
installed squid again
its now working direct for me

by the way if you select any of the Authentication settings on squid then squid breeks 
the squid auth files are missing
had to reinstall squid to get squid working again afther that

Warning: Unknown(/usr/local/pkg/squid_auth.inc): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /usr/local/www/pkg_edit.php(164) : 
eval()'d code on line 1 Fatal error: (null)(): Failed opening required '/usr/local/pkg/squid_auth.inc' 
(include_path='.:/etc/inc:/usr/local/www:/usr/local/captiveportal') in /usr/local/www/pkg_edit.php(164) : eval()'d code on line 1

only inc file i have in /usr/local/pkg is squid_ng.inc
the rest are xml files

Did a clean install on VMware and installed the SQUID package.
As far as i can see it seams to be working.
I enabled logging in the web gui but the log can only be viewed from the shell.

• Only set logging and i saw requests.
    Set the captive portal and that didn't work anymore :(

• Then set tranparted proxy delete the logs
    Captive portal loggin page was working again but u could not get webpages.

• disabled captive portal and got requests in the logfiles.

I take it that the requests showing up ib the logfile indicate squid is working.
