Squid & SquidGuard are not running Pfsense

[GM IT team]

Hi guys

Thank you for input. I have been searching for similar post but couldn't find the exact same issue.

Our pfsense Squid & SquidGuard was running before Pfsense 2.3 release.
Once updated 2.3 release. I couldn't make it run again. I notice that few thins are added and slightly changes in Squid & SquidGuard.

When I click ''Apply'', SquidGuard will not Start but remain STOPPED.

At Status> Services, I can run Squid but as soon as I start SquidGuard. Squid will stop.

#Remote proxies

Setup some default acls

From 3.2 further configuration cleanups have been done to make things easier and safer. The manager, localhost, and to_localhost ACL definitions are now built-in.

acl localhost src 127.X.X.X/32
