Squid and Spotify complaining on TCP 4070

XabiX

Hello,

I am seeing quite some logging around Spotify behing my Pfsense 2.4.2p1 and Squid3.5.27:

Date	IP	Status	Address	User	Destination
06.02.2018 17:40:47	10.0.0.10	TCP_MISS/206	http://audio-sp-lhr.spotify.com/audio/c9bc81393d5090017cace01e3509751560266b8a?	-	193.182.10.113
06.02.2018 17:40:47	10.0.0.10	TCP_MISS/206	http://audio-sp-lhr.spotify.com/audio/c9bc81393d5090017cace01e3509751560266b8a?	-	193.182.10.113
06.02.2018 17:40:46	10.0.0.10	TCP_MISS/206	http://audio-sp-lhr.spotify.com/audio/c9bc81393d5090017cace01e3509751560266b8a?	-	193.182.10.113

I didn't find much on what was the issue

Is there anything I should/can do to avoid such messages?

Merci

Those are just cache miss messages. Anything that ends in a ? is considered a dynamic URL and won't be cached unless you have written some refresh pattern rules to somehow handle it. You're going to get a TCP_MISS for any request that isn't already in your cache.

Are you having an actual problem or are you just asking about log messages?

Thanks Kom. No no real issues, I was just surprised to see that much of these messages in the logs.

Maybe I will turn off the logs then and just reactivate them one day if I have issues :)

Bad idea. When you really need them, they won't be there. Just set them to rotate and ignore them.
