      Is there an issue with squid in pfSense RC2e?
      The service doesn't start and once run manually it exits right away.
      Where should I look for an error log?

      Cheers

        Uninstall the squidpackage and readd it again. It should work, at least it does for me (if an interface is assigned to it).

          Howdy,

          this is from system log:
          Aug 17 17:01:42 squid[6659]: Exiting due to repeated, frequent failures
          Aug 17 17:01:42 squid[6659]: Squid Parent: child process 6862 exited due to signal 6
          Aug 17 17:01:42 kernel: pid 6862 (squid), uid 62: exited on signal 6
          Aug 17 17:01:42 (squid): Failed to verify one of the swap directories, Check cache.log for details. Run 'squid -z' to create swap directories if needed, or if running Squid for the first time.
          Aug 17 17:01:42 squid[6659]: Squid Parent: child process 6862 started

          Where do I find the cache.log to have a look at?

          Cheers

            Did you uninstall and reinstall the package?  It now runs squid -z during installation!

                .
                …well, reinstalled it 2 times without success.
                After that I deleted the package, rebooted and installed it again.

                Now it works as expected.

                Just to let you guys know...

                Cheers
