Squid Returned to Packages *** PLEASE TEST ***
-
Yes, I'm running it like that on a Smoothwall at the moment, and it does work.

I haven't looked at throteling yet, but I'll change it… thanks..I have also an update for the latest CVS
In the restart script I would change
log_error("Reloading Squid for configuration sync");
mwexec("/usr/local/sbin/squid -k reconfigure");in to:
if (!is_service_running('squid')) {
log_error("Starting Squid");
mwexec_bg("/usr/local/sbin/squid -D");
mwexec_bg("/usr/local/etc/rc.d/proxy_monitor.sh");
} else {
log_error("Reloading Squid for configuration sync");
mwexec("/usr/local/sbin/squid -k reconfigure");
}because when you install squid fresh, it won't start.
So the first time you configure squid, it will start aswell...Btw, after my clean install it runs perfect.
I replaced the 3 files with my own version because I like to change my cache dir...
But I think it can be back in the list -
Newer squid.inc with fixes.
Cache location added to XML -
Newer squid.inc with fixes.
Cache location added to XMLGood job!!!! Looks to be working fine. The service starts without errors. I can't really test it further without reconfiguring my box to use the vmware pfSense so I'll let others do that.

Uhm, I'm sorry to say, but the cache dir won't work.. there is something else there have to be changed with processing the conf file..
I've added my version (I cahnged the restart with the -k reconfigure as you did, but added a service check… start when it doesn't run and reconfigure when it runs)
And the log dir is also configurable (for if you want to process the log)
Update: I have added the acl rules update as databeestje has made...
But I'm not sure what you ment with that update? you still can't run squid and the gui on the same port.
It won't allow you to do, because there is a check, but if you would force it on the same port it won't work either... -
the port 80 check is broken. I'm fixing that now. The service check is in.
The cache location allready made it in. You have log location changes too?

I don't know what's wrong with it, but thanks for fixing it.
Yeah the logdir works the same as the cache dir…
But in your version in:
function squid_resync_cachethere is
$cachedir = SQUID_CACHEDIR;
that's wrong because that's still the fixed cache dir...
it should be
$cachedir =($settings['harddisk_cache_location'] ? $settings['harddisk_cache_location'] : '/var/squid/cache');same as with
$logdir_cache = SQUID_LOGDIR . '/cache.log';
$logdir_access = ($settings['log_enabled'] == 'on' ? SQUID_LOGDIR . '/access.log' : '/dev/null');that should be
$logdir = ($settings['log_dir'] ? $settings['log_dir'] : '/var/squid/log');$logdir_cache = $logdir . '/cache.log';
$logdir_access = ($settings['log_enabled'] == 'on' ? $logdir . '/access.log' : '/dev/null');I tought that's all, but I'm not 100% sure, otherwise check my included file in my previous post…
-
port 80 check fixed, added log dir option to xml.
-
Thanks to all those who contributed so far, my installation now at least starts up fine, and everything looks good!
Will test the throttling later today, got to get some sleep first.
-
I have made it available for the public again, and the 1st succes is in. I'm off to bed.
I think the log directory and cache directory creation is ok now and it should also populate the cache directory after changing.
Authentication really needs testing.
-
well just 1 small bug left. i dunno if this is a bug or intentional but the squid package cant work in transparent mode if the webgui is on the port 80 so have to change the port of the webgui. if this is intentional i think it's better to have a better notice to ask user to change the webgui port. anyways great job on the package it's working well now
-
i seen another bug again. seems like after installing the package u need to change the default cache location to another location first then change back to original or else it wont create the location and squid will fail to start with (squid): Failed to verify one of the swap directories, Check cache.log for details. Run 'squid -z' to create swap directories if needed, or if running Squid for the first time. and the blacklist is not working. seems like sullrich is kinda right this thing is cursed
-
The throttling now behaves as expected. Thanks to all involved.

No that's not a bug, you will lock yourself out of the webgui if you do that.
There can't be both services on the same port.About creating a cache dir.
I'll do a reinstall to be sure, but the problem is, if you had a squid version installed allready, it could give problems, because the cache dir is allready there but for another version
I'll take a look at it, maybe we can cange the install procedure that it will remove the old default cahce dir if it's there during install. -
nope mine is on fresh instalation of pfsense latest snapshot. it would not run unless i change the cache dir and change back and the blocklist is not working as well. anyways thanks for all the hardwork put into it. seems like the new squid breaks a lot of things. i'll try to test more features of the package for everyone
-
I have some other update…
in the resync functions after
log_error($disk_cache_location." does not exist. Creating.");
there must be mwexec("/usr/local/sbin/squid -k kill");otherwise it won't make the new cahce dir
Ok the kill option is not that nice, but who cares? we start with a new cache dir... so it's not a problem to shut it down this way.
I tried to do it nice, with the shutdown function, but that takes agesThis will be the new code:
if(!is_dir($disk_cache_location.'01/')) {
log_error($disk_cache_location." does not exist. Creating.");
mwexec("/usr/local/sbin/squid -k kill");But I'll give a new update later on.
I want to delete the old cache dir aswell, but that ain't as easy as I hope it would be.P.s This peace of code fixes the problem of having to setup the cache dir twice
-
Just a note to say thanks - the update is working here at the moment in transparent mode.
-
Squid package tested on bridge in transparent mode?
-
This is looking really good. Transparent mode is working well, but I'm not seeing any effects of the blacklist/whitelist. I know before I had to put an '*' in the blacklist if I wanted to fliter the web down to only the whitelisted sites. Is this still the case or am I missing another configuration step somewhere? I've tried adding the * but I'm still getting right through.

Newest CVS has seen some cleanups. Blacklisting appears broken to me. Can someone confirm this?
