      Hello,

      The upgrade to 2.3 went relatively smooth but I do have currently one issue with the squid package after the upgrade.
      Each time I start the squid service it will shortly afterwards stop. What I found in the cache log file is shown below.
      Your help would be much appreciated.

      Thanks,

        I have noticed the same behaviour, and also CPU occupancy has been ALOT higher.
        Ive restarted PFSense, un-installed squid, re-installed, and restarted again etc. with the same results.

        Any advice would be appreciated.

        Thanks

          I also noticed this, I had to remove squid because it won't start.
          if I remove squid and and untick the box that remembers all the settings it also doesn't seem to work, it keeps all the previous settings which I suspect might be corrupt or something.

            Same here. Squid Service stops after a brief period of time. Reinstalling package does not help.

            squid.log2.txt

              Same here. Could it be that the config file of the old install is not compatible to the new one?

              How can I do a clean reinstall without using the old config? Deleting the config file from /usr/local/etc/squid didn't work…

              The error message I get after restarting and doing a request through the proxy (transparent) is the following one:

                Here's another post about similar issues. The solution so far seem to work in my case and Squid seems to be enable along with SquidGuard.

                Hope this is helpful.

                  Hmmm, with regard to the linked issue: my cache structure looked fine and had the right permissions (but I only checked at the top level) and I already deleted the /usr/pbi files. Nevertheless, after doing a

                  
                  cd /var/squid
                  chown -R squid cache/
                  
                  

                  it seems to be working for now… Thanks!

                      You'd probably have to recreate the cache and swap files.

                      stop the squid service, login to shell

                      cd /var/squid/cache

                      rm -rf *

                      squid -z

                      Restart the squid service.

                      That is, if you are ok with deleting all the previous cache files.

                      Works for me.
