      Hi!

      I'm not able to use the cachemgr.cgi for squid.
      First I have set a link under /usr/local/www -> cachemgr.cgi -> /usr/local/libexec/squid/cachemgr.cgi
      and I was able to call the cachemgr logon screen via my web browser (http://pfsense/cachemgr.cgi).

      But after 60 seconds I received the following timeout:```

      Cache Manager Error

      connect: (60) Operation timed out
      Generated Mon, 25 Aug 2008 14:10:33 GMT, by cachemgr.cgi/2.7.STABLE4@pfsense.netview.de

      
      nothing more!
      
      Is there any problem with lighttpd and cgi-scripts?
      
      ciao

        Maybe squid not allowed cache mgr access?

          my squid.conf includes the following statements:

          
          ...
          acl manager proto cache_object
          http_access allow manager localhost
          http_access deny manager
          ...
          # Always allow localhost connections
          http_access allow localhost
          
          

          anything missing?

            do you have the acl cachemgr_passwd <password>all</password> defined ?
            and configured the squidmgr.conf ?

              Imho is the  'acl cachemgr_passwd <password>all' only needed for some special operations like 'reconfigure' s.o.

              The squidmgr.conf has the default 'localhost:3128'.
              Maybe lighttpd can only respond on port 80 - should I add  port 3128 too?</password>
