I am now creating new DansGuardian and Squid3 binaries.

Legion

@Legion:

If you're inclined, it would be cool if you made sure squidguard was updated and worked with your squid-3.4 as well.

a little off topic, but what do you mean? squidguard itself hasn't been updated in a couple of years, its 1.5 beta on their website…

Yeah, I would hope that there would be no problem but I thought that maybe squidguard (and other packages) would have to be updated to their FreeBSD 10.x versions so while he was working with new Squid 3.4 he could test that the associated packages work as well. By the sounds of it dansguardian is the focus but I am using squidguard at the moment rather than DG since I found it more suitable for my needs.

I had previously tried SquidGuard. Although it seemed to work, I need to be able to auto-update the blacklist, among other things. Even though DansGuardian isn't quite stable, it seemed to have more potential than SquidGuard, once finished.

I'd be happy to check out e2guardian, but one thing at a time.

Lastly, this is mostly directed at jimp, but anyone else interested is welcome to use as desired.

I have build instructions for building from source.

You will need to grab the 'ports' option/project/whatever for FreeBSD 10.1. This can be done either at the point of install, or post-installation, with the commands:

portsnap fetch
portsnap extract

Then, cd into the /usr/ports folder. cd further into the pkg-mgmt folder, and do amake install. If you already have the pkg binary installed, you will instead need to run```
make reinstall


Then, cd to /usr/ports/www/squid . Run```
make PREFIX=/usr/pbi/squid-[b][i]archetecture[/i][/b]/ install
```.

You will be presented with some dialog boxes the first time around, I used the following settings:

> ARP_ACL=on: ARP/MAC/EUI based authentification
>     AUTH_KERB=on: Install Kerberos authentication helpers
>     AUTH_LDAP=on: Install LDAP authentication helpers
>     AUTH_NIS=off: Install NIS/YP authentication helpers
>     AUTH_SASL=off: Install SASL authentication helpers
>     AUTH_SMB=off: Install SMB auth. helpers (req. Samba)
>     AUTH_SQL=off: Install SQL based auth (uses MySQL)
>     CACHE_DIGESTS=on: Use cache digests
>     DEBUG=off: Build with extended debugging support
>     DELAY_POOLS=on: Delay pools (bandwidth limiting)
>     DNS_HELPER=on: Use external dnsserver processes for DNS
>     DOCS=off: Build and/or install documentation
>     ECAP=off: Loadable content adaptation modules
>     ESI=on: ESI support
>     EXAMPLES=off: Build and/or install examples
>     FOLLOW_XFF=on: Support for the X-Following-For header
>     FS_AUFS=on: AUFS (threaded-io) support
>     FS_DISKD=on: DISKD storage engine controlled by separate service
>     FS_ROCK=off: ROCK (unstable)
>     HTCP=on: HTCP support
>     ICAP=on: the ICAP client
>     ICMP=on: ICMP pinging and network measurement
>     IDENT=off: Ident lookups (RFC 931)
>     IPV6=on: IPv6 protocol support
>     KQUEUE=on: Kqueue(2) support
>     LARGEFILE=on: Support large (>2GB) cache and log files
>     LAX_HTTP=off: Do not enforce strict HTTP compliance
>     SNMP=off: SNMP support
>     SSL=on: SSL gatewaying support
>     SSL_CRTD=on: Use ssl_crtd to handle SSL cert requests
>     STACKTRACES=on: Enable automatic backtraces on fatal errors

It will also ask you about options for the various libraries needed by squid, and will compile them along the way. I didn't make notes of my answers for these, but they shouldn't be too hard to figure out. Usually, just use the defaults. Turn off documentation and debugging options, etc., but mostly the defaults. Depending on your hardware, this may take 20 minutes or so to finish compiling.

jimp

If you look in pkg_config.10.xml you'll notice for squid3 there are some build options made from variables similar to the ones you see there. If you (or someone else) can turn the list of yours into the build options style and submit a pull request, we can recompile it with the new options to see if it works.

JimP,

I can try that, but as I was using the FreeBSD "ports" repo for testing, there is no ./configure file until after running make. In this scenario, "make install" is the only command needed, and that creates the "configure" program, adds the build options, configures, compiles, and links the program and all requisite libraries. This makes it easy and convenient to build, but not so easy to pass configure options to somebody else. I guess I'll try to build from official Squid source, but keep in mind, that that source doesn't have all of the FreeBSD 10 specific patches and compatibility testing which is included in the Ports repo.

Stay tuned.

jimp

The build options in the xml are the build options from freebsd ports, not configure. You can also see them in /var/db/ports/<portname>/options, where portname is xxx_yyy, xxx = the ports category, yyy being the port name, such as www_squid</portname>

aaronouthier

Interesting. Good to know! I'll check that in the morning.

Sorry for the silence this weekend. My computer was having video issues on Friday. On Saturday, I made some new VMs, based on FreeBSD 10.2 RC1, instead of Beta 3 as before. Build process is erroring-out on glib20, while running "make" in "/usr/ports/ports-mgmt/". I am unable to compile and install the updated "pkg" binary, which is required by the rest of the ports repo. This is occurring in both amd64 and i386 versions. I'll update "ports" tomorrow and try again, to see if this is fixed.

Thank you for your continued patience.

jimp

pkg can be a little odd to upgrade sometimes, but it usually prints instructions about it when it fails.

try this:

pkg delete -f pkg; cd /usr/ports/ports-mgmt/pkg; env UPGRADEPKG=1 make clean install clean

aaronouthier

@Jimp: No, I don't think that's it. I am having no end of headaches with ports on RC1. Things that worked without issues. Squid, Avahi, pkg, and more are constantly getting stuck while building dependencies. It is not happening during install phase. Also, the same errors are occurring in the same places on both i386 and amd64 builds. Everything from "aclocal 1.13 missing", to missing dependencies during configure, because they are supposed to be compiled ahead of time, but aren't. None of this was happening with beta 3. The fix has always been to look at the logs and figure out where the process is breaking down and cd to that location and "make clean && make install". Compiling squid alone took more than 3 hours, and I had to manually build about 20 different dependencies. Every time I'd fix one thing, something else further down the line would fail.

I then spend just under 4 hours on Avahi before calling it a night. Going to try to finish up in a few minutes.

All of this was with a fresh, clean install of freebsd 10.1 - not an upgrade or install over-the-top of the existing.

jimp

Strange, I haven't used an RC yet myself, my workstation is on a late beta, but there were a ton of updates to ports over the last couple weeks.

When all else fails, pkg delete -fa, and start over with a fresh ports tree (portsnap fetch extract)

aaronouthier

I've been trying to resolve them manually. That said, I just did a portsnap fetch and portsnap update, followed closely behind by a few _make distclean_s. Portsnap fetch grabbed over 200 patches to my existing tree. Crossing my fingers…

aaronouthier

Yeah, going to start with a new ports install. Running rm -rf /usr/ports now. Just ran pkg delete -fa a moment ago. Thanks for that, by the way. I didn't previously know I could force remove all pkgs! I'm assuming that's what is meant by -fa (force all).

aaronouthier

I'm back on the case.

FreeBSD was updated to RC2 on Friday. I had some things going over the weekend. It's now about midnight Monday morning. GTG.

Aaron - Thanks for working on this. Any update on progress. I am looking to install and would appreciate any guidance you can provide.

Actually, I've stopped working on this, as the original maintainer of squid and DansGuardian, namely user MarcelloC, managed to find the time to update them about a month ago. I assume you're having trouble? If so, you're in the right place… (Pfsense forums).

That's awesome news… so now the normal Squid3 and DG packages should work under 2.2?

Cino

Do you know where he updated them too?

I checked github for php/inc file changes: squid3 hasn't been updated in 2 months, Dansguardian 5 months.

Ok. I did some more checking, and, now I'm not sure who updated it, or when. I just know that around October 15 or so, I reinstalled my box, and everything worked, whereas a fresh install previously didn't work right without some modifications.

Also, note that I am using squid3-dev, not regular squid3, and I am running it on the 2.2 beta, not the 2.1.x stable.

jbc

I have a fresh install of 2.2-BETA (amd64) built on Mon Oct 27 15:31:41 CDT 2014 FreeBSD 10.1-RC3
If I install squid3-dev beta 3.3.11_1 pkg 2.2.7 platform: 2.2 - I've never managed to start it.

On the previous install, I tried installing libraries it complained were missing ect. to see if I could get it up,
but eventually I gave up, and reinstalled from scratch.

Would you mind sharing which versions you're running?

Thanks in advanced.

Escorpiom

More or less the same situation here, I'm running 2.2 beta snapshot and tried to install Squid 3.3.11_1 pkg 2.2.7, it wouldn't start.
I used the workaround described elsewhere on this forum, and now it runs.
Downside is that the "workaround" (console commandos) have to be entered again after each update.

So it's either "do not update" or "workaround".

For my purposes, Squid proxy (and if possible with ad blocking) is really a must-have.
I'm not a programmer, but can test packages if needed.
Please keep up the effort.

Cheers.
