My lightsquid has stopped working
-
Dear Experts, My light squid is not working. Ones there was some problem while browsing websites, as they were borwsing very slow, so i had created new instance in my vmware and installed fresh squid, squidguard, and lightsquid packages and downloaded the blacklist from the blacklist website for squidguard, and started the squid. After I had restored by backup to restore all my GroupACL and Target catogories. After the restoration got completed, I found squid started working fine and also i got all my Group ACL as it is. But from 2 days i had noticed it had stopped generating reports. Please see the Screen shot

Usually when that happens you either need to press "refresh full" on the lightsquid page, or the access log from squid doesn't have any data so it can't make a report.

I had done by pressing refresh button and i m trying since 3 days, and 4 days had passed, i dont think it is not generating report. As i told it was working fine, and i had restored my backup on tnew server. This is a new server and its not working on this.

then check your squid logging settings and make sure that the access log actually has data.

Mine is sorta doing the same thing, I check the file /var/squid/log/access.log and there is a lot of content from today but LightSquid isnt showing todays date as an option to view the logs.
Any ideas?

did you tried to change squid logs dir to /var/squid/logs?
-
Well changing it to logs shows some items from today. Is this a bug or a typo?
Should I keep it at logs?
-
Keep logs. :)

Supprisingly I had installed new pfsense, i thaught my pfsense had crashed, as squid was working no no logs were been generated, but after installing the new OS with fresh rules an access controls, still the same problem in my new pfsense, I had checked the path it is /var/squid/log, and everything was working, Only the new thing has come up suddenly that is proxy state, and i dont know what is this for.
The attached screenshots are of my new server. And i feel this had stopped after this proxy state has come up.

What a bug, Can some one explain how did it changed from log to logs, and that is about "Proxy State", how can remove that tab, because when ever it is been clicked it taked lots of time or some times browsers gets hanged. And we cannot remove that tab, then what is the default referesh time to be kept so that browsers does not gets hangged?

The default squid dir on pfsense package is /var/squid/logs but one there was a typo on a previous version of lightsquid that was changing/looking on /var/squid/log.

Are you listening squid on loopback also? I found this on a fast look on its code:
$this->squidhost = '127.0.0.1'; $this->squidport = '3128'; -
same problem here after updating to the latest LightSquid. The report page is blank or error message ocurs
