      Hello,
      i have installed squiguard on pfsense 1.2.

      When i configure squidguard with the gui, the file squidguard.conf is not updated?
      So, the config of my squidguard is always:

      _/usr/local/etc/squidGuard/squidGuard.conf

      ============================================================

      SquidGuard configuration file

      This file generated automaticly with SquidGuard configurator

      (C)2006 Serg Dvoriancev

      email: dv_serg@mail.ru

      ============================================================

      logdir /var/squidGuard/log
      dbhome /var/db/squidGuard

      acl {
      default {
      pass all
      redirect http://192.168.1.1/sgerror.php?url=Error%21%20Check%20squidGuard%20configuration%20data.%20%28sg_create_config%3A%20%5B2%5D%29.&a=%a&n=%n&i=%i&s=%s&t=%t&u=%u
      }_

      And all the web site is always authorized… and i don't want this!!!

      Do you know how can i do for configure squidguard??

      Thx a lot

          squidGuard fonctionne parfaitement. Suivez http://diskatel.narod.ru/sgquick.htm pour la configuration.

            I do like http://diskatel.narod.ru/sgquick.htm,
            I check the right of /usr/local/etc/squidguard and /var/db/squidGuard and their are 755 / proxy so it's OK.

            I check the webGUI log

            The config file is never update, and always is specified pass all :

            acl {
            default {
            pass all redirect http://192.168.1.1/sgerror.php?url=Error%21%20Check%20squidGuard%20configuration%20data.%20%28sg_create_config%3A%20%5B2%5D%29.&a=%a&n=%n&i=%i&s=%s&t=%t&u=%u
            }
            }

              You have error in you GUI settings or you not success install blacklist.
              Open & SAVE Default page and each ACL pages for fix.

                No, you are right. This error has nothing to do with you. It has to do with the fact that the shallalist has made a mistake. They publish the list with a directory called “politcs” which has a typo. So, instead of just renaming this directory, they make a symbol link from politics to politcs. That is something, squidGuard obviously has problems with. I have encountered the same problem.

                  Can you not-use politic rule? Temporary?

                    No. I do not use the Politics/Politcs rule but still have the problem. Above in the log of Rom you see:

                    28.05.2008 14:08:26 : sg_create_config: Error configuration data. It's all errors:
                    BLACKLIST 'blk_BL_politics' error: file '/var/db/squidGuard/blk_BL_politics' not found

                    So, I think the problem starts with indexing.

                      /usr/local/etc/squidGuard/blacklist.files
                      Edit blk_BL_politics > blk_BL_politcs

                        I just deleted politics in this file after updating the list. However, it seems to be that this has to be done everytime one updates the shallalist.

                          OK, it's work

                          Finally, i duplicate and rename the blk_BL_politics folder in blk_BL_politcs.

                          Whan i start squidguard all it's OK and then the squidguard.conf is up to date.

                          So my squidguard rule's works fine.

                          Thx a lot

                            Has anyone reported this to Shallalist so it can be fixed?  I came across the same problem.  Anyone that doesn't know how to use SSH and navigate the BSD file system will be totally lost with this one.  I can navigate somewhat.  I've created the blk_BL_politics and chowned it to proxy:proxy and copied the files in the other directory to it, still getting the same error.  I've modified the line in blacklist.files as stated above, STILL get the same error.  What do I do?  My SG is down because of this one little typo.  Ouch.
