      I have the same here. As you said, it is related to Captive Portal Authentication. If you disable it, Squid will start.
      I am trying to solve this issue. I think it is related to external acl setup.
      This link could be useful: https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=87648.15

        It's related to pbi on pfsense 2.2 the scripts looks for php libs but when it's called via squid, it fails to load/find.

          I'm having the same problem with a fresh 2.2 install. Squid 3 with Captive Portal auth.

          Here's the bit from cache.log:

          2015/03/04 21:05:11 kid1| Starting Squid Cache version 3.4.10 for amd64-portbld-freebsd10.1...

              I haven't found a way to solve the problem  :(
              All I did was disable authentication in Squid.

                Unfortunately, the same problem persists in the new version (2.2.1).

                  I think it will only work again without pbi(manual freebsd pkg install on 2.2) or on pfsense 2.3.

                        Found a fix here is what I did

                        open a few terminals by sshing to pfsense box and goto command line

                        term 1 - view cache log to see what is happening
                        tail -f /var/squid/logs/cache.log

                        term 2 - run the cmds to link files where squid can access them

                        ln -s /usr/local/bin/php /usr/pbi/squid-amd64/local/bin/php
                        ln -s /usr/local/lib/php /usr/pbi/squid-amd64/local/lib/php
                        ln -s /usr/local/etc/php.ini /usr/pbi/squid-amd64/local/etc/php.ini
                        ln -s /usr/local/lib/libsqlite3.so.0 /usr/pbi/squid-amd64/local/lib/

                        Note removed the extra extensions from php.ini leaving only the sqlite3.so, so the cache log would not have so many warnings
                        vi /usr/pbi/squid-amd64/local/etc/php.ini

                        ; Extensions

                        extension=sqlite3.so
                        –--------------

                        term 3 - run squid in debug mode, if it works, run squid -k shutdown and start from the gui
                        squid -d 9

                              Hi all,

                              After applying all these patches, squid 3 is working with captive portal authentication.
                              But after 3 days, we observed that some mobile devices are connecting to https sites without authentication. Whatsapp, gmail and youtube apps displays the content without authentication. As this happens users internet usage is not counted.

                              Any hint to check?

                              2.0.2-RELEASE (amd64)  &  2.2.2-RELEASE (amd64)

                              Always trying to learn!!

                                  It may occur when you select loopback interface to listen squid on. Try to select only lan, restart the service and test again.
