      squid:
      – Enable log option
      -- Set log path as /var/squid/log
      -- use squid 5-10 min (web browsing trough squid)
      lightsquid
      -- click Refresh_now
      -- goto Lightsquid tab

        Everything's done as you suggested, yet it still gives the exact same message as I posted.  What am I missing?

          This message man only, what LS not have information in his DB.  For update information to LS db need have enabling squid log and squid must create log file in '/var/squid/log'.
          Can you checking /var/squid/log/access.log file for exists?

                I'm experiencing the same issue, I've already reinstalled squid and lightsquid and repeat the same process thrice with futile results, /var/squid/log/access.log exists but empty, cache log though is not. I have 2 new pfsense deployment having this same issue but in my previous installations everything is working fine, I have no idea why this is happening, any ideas how to resolve this?

                TIA

                  Squid must work some time for not-empty /var/squid/log/access.log
                  Also check permissions.

                    Squid has been running for quite sometime now, more than 2 days already. What should be the correct file permission?

                    I know it's quite odd, I have a previous install way back and it's working alright but I can't seem to figure out this one.

                      Access.log must have 'proxy' owner
                      Also check squid config gui for enable LOG option.

                        As you can see from the output of ls -l below, access.log is owned by proxy and was already rotated however it's an empty file. Log enabled option in squid is also enabled as I've mentioned awhile back.

                            Yes I did, I click both Refresh Now and Refresh full to no avail. I have another pfsense deployment yesterday and squid/lightsquid package works just fine, I can't seem to figure out this one though, perhaps a hard drive failure?
