PFsense and Squid
-
Any help at all?

Hi,
I think I had am similar problem with same error messages like you:
Apr 12 19:51:36 php: : Not calling package sync code for dependency squidcache of squid because some include files are missing. Apr 12 19:51:36 php: : Not calling package sync code for dependency squidusers of squid because some include files are missing. Apr 12 19:51:36 php: : Not calling package sync code for dependency squidauth of squid because some include files are missing. Apr 12 19:51:36 php: : Not calling package sync code for dependency squidupstream of squid because some include files are missing. Apr 12 19:51:36 php: : Not calling package sync code for dependency squidtraffic of squid because some include files are missing. Apr 12 19:51:36 php: : Not calling package sync code for dependency squid of squid because some include files are missing. Apr 12 19:51:36 php: : Not calling package sync code for dependency squidnac of squid because some include files are missing. Apr 12 19:51:36 php: : Not calling package sync code for dependency squidcache of squid because some include files are missing.But as I remember right, this was only after updating from one snapshot to another - not sure if I reinstalled the squid package or just did an reboot.
At the moment I am running:
2.0-RC1 (amd64) built on Fri Apr 15 00:19:55 EDT 2011
and I do not have any of the errors postet above and squid works in transparent mode and no problem with youtube or other things as far as I know. -
I have managed to narrow down the youtube/downloading problems to AdBlock Plus installed on my Firefox installation.
However, I still think these errors need to be resolved, and they did only start occurring for me after I updated.
I will lodge a bug report on the topic.

Can you show the output of:
ls -l /usr/local/pkg/squid*It should look like:
$ ls -l /usr/local/pkg/squid* -rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 50705 May 31 10:49 /usr/local/pkg/squid.inc -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 13976 May 31 10:49 /usr/local/pkg/squid.xml -rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 9454 May 31 10:49 /usr/local/pkg/squid_auth.xml -rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 11415 May 31 10:49 /usr/local/pkg/squid_cache.xml -rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 6334 May 31 10:49 /usr/local/pkg/squid_nac.xml -rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 11716 May 31 10:49 /usr/local/pkg/squid_ng.xml -rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 7310 May 31 10:49 /usr/local/pkg/squid_traffic.xml -rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 5047 May 31 10:49 /usr/local/pkg/squid_upstream.xml -rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 4362 May 31 10:49 /usr/local/pkg/squid_users.xmlsquid.inc is the only include file mentioned by those other xml files, so that file must be missing/corrupt for you somehow if that error is showing up.

That looks fine. As long as squid.inc is there it shouldn't be complaining about any missing files. Yours is a different size than mine but that's because I checked in an unrelated fix to squid.inc for another problem this morning so it's a little bigger now.

So where does this leave us re a fix?
-
If it can't be reproduced or diagnosed, it can't be fixed. I don't see any problems anywhere. I've removed it several times and reinstalled it on multiple VMs and I never see those errors. The files are all there, and yet you're seeing an error suggestion it's not actually there.
Maybe run a FS check:
fsck -p /And make sure you don't have a problem there.
-
I will run the check but unless the package installation is corrupting something on varying different hardware platforms (even virtual) then I doubt it will throw anything up.
-
I just got a write access denied and an unexpected inconsistency message. Will run fsck -f and see what happens
-
I got some unreferenced files. I will reboot and see if the problem is cured.
EDIT: I just noticed that the file references were not cleared. How do I clear them?
-
We need a good way to trigger a fsck manually. For now the best way is to boot to single user mode and run:
fsck -fy /And then reboot again.
-
I shut down after the fsck -f attempt mentioned above, and after restarting it did the check itself during startup. It automatically marked the file system clean.
I have just looked at the logs and the problem persists. The service still cannot be restarted. I have just attempted to restart the service from the console and it reports that service squid does not exist within rc.d. I am not sure if this is related.
-
How did you try to start it by hand?
It may not have an rc script if it isn't loading the .inc file properly.
Uninstall anything squid related, remove its traces:
pkg_delete -f \*squid\* rm /usr/local/pkg/squid* rm -rf /var/squid/And then reinstall squid again, see if it behaves any differently. If you had squidguard installed, or lightsquid, don't reinstall those at first, wait until squid is running.
-
EDIT: I started by running "service squid restart" from the console. Just for reference I tried from the web configuratior as well and that didn't work either,
I have just removed squid. The uninstaller told me that there was no reference to squid in the rc.d file to remove and that some folders could not be removed as they did not exist.
I have just received multiple file not found errors on bootup after a reboot as there is still a file somewhere trying to start squid.

Maybe your hard drive has developed a bad spot and you have consequently lost a few files. You almost certainly need to reinstall the package to recover the files that have been lost. I believe modern hard drives have spare blocks that can be used to replace bad blocks. I wonder if the drive still has spare blocks. You could try reading the whole drive to see if any errors are reported, e.g. if your hard drive is /dev/ad0 the pfSense shell command
dd if=/dev/ad0 of=/dev/null bs=65536
will read the whole hard drive.
Have you recently had any panics or other restarts not preceded by a shutdown? On my pfSense system I find there are often file system troubles reported after a panic.
-
The hard drive is virtual, within VMWare. The problems are also replicated on a physical disk. Therefore this is not a hardware fault.
