I also had this. The quick way - to get you started again - is to:

Stop squid
Get into a root shell on your pfSense box
Run "rm /var/squid/cache/swap.state"
I can't remember if you need to run "squid -z" but there should be no harm in running it.
Start squid

You'll start off with an empty cache but it should start working.

I´m running squid 2.6.21_07 on a Pfsense 1.2.1-RC2 and yesterday the proxy crashed. I checked the machine 4 hours before the chrash and it showed 2% disc usage. Then, suddenly 100%. So, on 4 hours the swap.state file had filled up 120gb with… something.

I deleted the file and rebooted the machine and everything runs again. But, I still dont know what caused the problem. Anyone got an idea? Or, have found a solution wich prevents it from happening again.

tx man i have 1.2.2 and there is still this problem width pf.

I am now using diskd for "Hard disk cache system" of squid.
I hope this is solution!

Nope it is not. Is there hope that 1.2.3 RC1 solved this problem?
What about captive portal is it working width squid transparent cache?

no one?
i am removing lightsquid… and i will see if there is hope

I had this happen on one system, had to completely delete the cache. For some reason it was using twice as much space as I configured it to use.

Following bern's post above should get it working again.

Good afternoon. Same problem here too. I setup 3 boxes of 1.2.2. The 1st one got 100% full disk. So I manually "rm" the swap. But then this afternoon i still got the problem 100% full disk again..The other 2 boxes have no problem.. Strange isnt it… Tried reinstalled the squid same thing 100% swap cache disk full. I even reformat the 1st box same thing 100% disk full cache swap..But the 2 boxes still running and no problem... Anyone?

Thanks,
jigp 1.2.2

Looks like it might be time for some people to take a look in the bounty forum…$250 to create a 2.7 stable 6 package.
