Squid GUI "Custom options" Line feed problem …
-
If you add any options via the web gui to the custom options in squid the result in the squid.conf file is without line feeds.
for example
if i put:
refresh_pattern -i exe$ 0 100% 999999
refresh_pattern -i zip$ 0 100% 999999and i look at squid.conf it shows up like this:
refresh_pattern -i exe$ 0 100% 999999refresh_pattern -i zip$ 0 100% 999999this is a problem? i am using firefox if that matters…

Did you read the note under that box?
You can put your own custom options here, separated by semi-colons ( ; ). They'll be added to the configuration. They need to be squid.conf native options, otherwise squid will NOT work.
-
so even with the ; they will still be one line. squid knows to separate the two lines?
-
The ; is a trick to make it work. The parser in the squid package splits it on ; and makes it separate lines in the actual config.
Just follow what it says, and it will work.

thanks that did work!
on a side note; please tell me why there are lines for "delay_pools" when i have explicitly set all delays to off or rather left them at 0…
all four boxes in the traffic management page are set to 0
ever box below is uncheckedso why are there delay_pool options in the file?
((i didnt want to start a new thread about this))

I would start a new thread for that. I really don't know the answer and nobody would find that question in this thread. Your best chance at getting an answer would be a new topic with a more relevant subject line.
