Squid problems please advise
-
Hey guys,
Having some major issues with squid since I installed it last night. I installed Squid, Lightsquid, and SquidGuard. I only configured squid and went through SquidGuard a good bit, since most settings I can configure later. I woke up this morning to check system logs and heres what I see:
Aug 21 09:07:51 squid[22091]: Exiting due to repeated, frequent failures

I am running v 1.2.1 pfsense.
Thanks guys,

Run 'squid -z' to create swap directories.

Can you tell me how to run squid -z? I have no idea where to input it for a program. I tried console and it did nothing. Sorry im a noob.
