Transparent proxy on squid3 not working

doktornotor

Please, stop trying to upgrade from Squid2. Start from scratch.

NetVicious

Ditto.

After the upgrade the squid3 configuration was empty so I did it another time. But I got the error I posted.

I fixed it now. Disable the transparent proxy, saving, restart. Enable the transparent proxy, save, restart.

Sorry for bugging but all seemed ok.

By "start from scratch" I mean you should wipe any and all Squid references from config.xml.

If I were you start fresh as in format the drive + reinstall pfSense

Here is my solution.

I onley have 1 nic

Original non transparent proxy on port 3128 on wan interface

Then i add this line below Custom ACLS (Before Auth)

"http_port IpAdressProxy:3129 accel vhost allow-direct" where ip adress is the the statick of the proxy server.

Then on mikrotik router i have Firewall rule that redirect port 80 to port 3129

then i can use standard proxy and transparent.

Solution for what? Has the OP mentioned he has only one NIC and Mikrotik router? ::)

I'm having the same problem, but with squid 4.3.9 and squidGuard 1.9.15.

kivimart, I'd like to try your solution, but I don't know where to put it.

In squid proxy server-> general tab then below Advanced features there Custom ACLS (Before Auth) click advanced paste the line below but before change your ip adress.

http_port 172.16.10.2:3129 accel vhost allow-direct

There is so much work on this pfSense to start from zero.

I found on /var/squid/logs/cache.log this message (X.X.X.X was a correct Ip).
UPGRADE WARNING: URL rewriter reponded with garbage ' X.X.X.X/- - GET'. Future Squid will treat this as part of the URL.

Looking in Google I see it's a problem with the link between squid and squidGuard, due to the helper of squid and an old squidGuard
http://bugs.squid-cache.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3978

I should delete all squidGuard config too ? my SquidGuard has so much work on it. It's there any changelog of which configurations have been deprecated ? It will be easier to check that old configurations instead of starting from scratch.

Squid 4.3.9 it's squid2, try updating to squid3.
