        Same Issue here.
        @C0RR0SIVE Thanks for your detailed problem description.
        I fixed it by reverting the following changes in /usr/local/pkg/squidguard_configurator.inc:

        changed:
        $acl[F_DESTINATIONNAME]     = "^squidstatus !in-addr {$acl[F_DESTINATIONNAME]}";
        $acl[F_OVERDESTINATIONNAME] = "^squidstatus !in-addr {$acl[F_OVERDESTINATIONNAME]}";
        to:
        $acl[F_DESTINATIONNAME]     = "!in-addr {$acl[F_DESTINATIONNAME]}";
        $acl[F_OVERDESTINATIONNAME] = "!in-addr {$acl[F_OVERDESTINATIONNAME]}";
        
        changed:
        $def[F_DESTINATIONNAME] = "^squidstatus !in-addr " . $def[F_DESTINATIONNAME];
        to:
        $def[F_DESTINATIONNAME] = "!in-addr " . $def[F_DESTINATIONNAME];

          I've run into the same issue with pfSense (ver. 2.5.2) proxy-filter (Squidguard 1.16.18_19).

          The proxy server (Squid 0.4.45_4) seems to functioning normally in Transparent/SSL mode, but for some reason the filter function just stopped working since 2021-07-14 according to the log.

          I've tried stopping/restarting the services, and the system, and uninstalling/reinstalling Squidguard, but the filter does not filter any content at all.

          ref: https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/12125

          I was just wondering if you or someone else had found any resolution?

          I am now considering restoring to an earlier configuration date, and re-configure changes from then to present.

            I tried to restore to an earlier configuration, no go... Something is wrong somewhere in the actual Squid Guard files, read the previous posts, you're going to have to edit a few files it seems like. I am surprised there aren't several others with this issue.

              I've tried editing the "squidguard_configurator.inc" file as suggested in previous post, rebooted the system and filtering is still not functioning.
              I will check again tomorrow, but getting frustrated with this problem.
              Please reply if you have heard/found any other possible solutions.

              Thanks for your replies/input.

                Did SquidGuard recreate the configuration file?
                If not, you have to make some configurations changes and then reapply the settings.

                Please check the following file: /usr/local/etc/squidGuard1/squidGuard.conf
                The ACLS' should no longer contain squidstatus.

                OK

                	foo  {
                		pass !in-addr bar none
                		log block.log
                	}
                	#
                

                NOK

                	foo  {
                		pass squidstatus !in-addr bar none
                		log block.log
                	}
                	#

                  Thank you for the advice,

                  I've checked the squidGuard.conf file and it didn't contain "squidstatus !in-addr" or "bar none" in the acl section (see attached jpg image)
                  I tried adding the "!in-addr" portion to the config, but after stopping/restarting the SquidGuard service I found that it wasn't saved or reverted to default.

                  Note that I'm using the Diagnostics/Edit File graphic editor.

                  The system still isn't filtering content.
                  Does the server need to be rebooted to reconfig?

                    System Log shows "php-fpm 44155 /diag_reboot.php: The command '/usr/bin/killall 'squidGuard'' returned exit code '1', the output was 'No matching processes were found' " as last entry after re-installing SquidGuard 1.16.18_19 package (see attached jpg)

                        Thanks for the update,

                        I had proceeded to backdate config and uninstalled Squid/Squidguard temporarily. I will be re-installing from scratch, Squid-Proxy first (save config) and Squidguard-Filter second, when the update is available.

                        I will update post if issues continue at that time.

                          Reinstalled Squid & Squidguard 1.16.18_20 today and same issue is occuring. Squid Proxy Server works fine (transparent/ssl), then after installing Squidguard and configuring (Blacklist/target catagories), it initially filters content, then stops filtering any content.
                          (See attached system log)

                          Any help appreciated.

                              Thank you for the promp reply,
                              Presently I'm just running Squid - Proxy Service.
                              Unfortuneately, I've removed Squidguard temporarily to avoid issues with Net Users.
                              I normally do diagnostics/net management on Fridays, so I will reinstall/try again and send log at that time, or sooner if possible.
