Squid3 - New GUI with sync, normal and reverse proxy

marcelloc

Custom options

http_port 8080 intercept;

ident_lookup_access allow all;
ident_timeout 3 seconds;

Note that only your custom options has ";" at the end.

Remove it and test again.

Hello, just reinstalled squid3 and it is still not caching. logs give TCP_MISS/200

thank you

al_reidy

my HD died in the router. on a fresh reinstall i can install the squid3 package but i get this in the system log.

php: /pkg_mgr_install.php: XML error: Mismatched tag at line 348 in /usr/local/pkg/squid.xml

the package doesnt have any menu item options either.

corrupt package?

al_reidy

the line in the xml refers to :

<default_value>en</default_value>

as part of

<field><fielddescr>Language</fielddescr>
<fieldname>error_language</fieldname>
<description>Select the language in which the proxy server will display error messages to users.</description>
<type>select</type>
<default_value>en</default_value></field>

podilarius

a pull request has been submited by phil that should fix that. We are waiting on a dev to pull in that request.

It's fixed now, wait 15 minutes and reinstall

Thanks!

Apologies to all - my little "fix" for the default language had a bit of extra cut-and-paste somehow. I noticed it soon after it got committed, but unfortunately it took quite a while for anyone with the necessary privs to commit the better version. I'll stare a lot harder at seemingly mindless fixes in future!

Its working now. Thank you all for your help. ;D

I would like to report a bug in the Squid Reverse Proxy. Under the HTTPS settings the default port used is 443 if you leave the feild empty. However if you look at squid.conf in /usr/local/etc/squid the listening port is still 80. So you have to manually put in 443 for the listening port.

Even though I found this bug I'm still having issues with getting the HTTPS reverse proxy working correctly.

I'm getting a squid error page saying Access Denied. Access control configuration prevents your request from being allowed at this time.

Not sure of the problem but it looks like others are having problems with the reverse proxy on HTTPS as well.

Folks, is there any reason why in proxy_monitor.sh you're using a series of pipes (btw both awk seem redundant)

NUM_PROCS=`ps auxw | grep "[s]quid -D"|awk '{print $2}'| wc -l | awk '{ print $1 }'`

rather than a simpler pgrep -f "process" | wc -l ?[/s]

podilarius

Please re-install as I have modified the code using the pgrep a couple of days ago.

Hi, I'm not running squid on pfsense, but I just happened to notice the commits at:

https://github.com/bsdperimeter/pfsense-packages/blob/master/config/squid3/proxy_monitor.sh
(which is the latest code afaik)

podilarius

sorry .. looking at the wrong line of code. That package (squid3) is for 1.2.3. The one that is on 2.1 and I think 2.0 is under the directory squid-reverse. So, you are talking about making it:


NUM_PROCS=`pgrep -f "squid -f" | wc -l | awk '{ print $1 }'`

The awk has to be in there to format the number returned properly as output without the awk yields spaces or tabs before the number returned.
or even


NUM_PROCS=`ps auxw | grep -c "[s]quid -f"'

This has only 1 pipe like your example.[/s]

@marcelloc - I corrected the conf_mount_rw and conf_mount_ro calls so that after a squid3 installation on nanobsd-like systems the filesystem ends up read-only. (Previously it was accidentally left read-write at the end of the install).

Now this message appears in /tmp/PHP_errors.log

[03-Aug-2012 04:16:47 UTC] PHP Warning:  copy(/root/2.1-BETA0.captiveportal.inc.backup): failed to open stream: Read-only file system in /usr/local/pkg/squid.inc on line 1640

This is the code:

	if (!file_exists('/root/'.$pfsense_version.'.captiveportal.inc.backup')) {
		copy ($cp_file,'/root/'.$pfsense_version.'.captiveportal.inc.backup');
		}
	if($found_rule > 0){
		file_put_contents($cp_file,$new_cp_inc, LOCK_EX);
		}

I am not sure what you want to do, perhaps put the backup in /tmp? (lost after a reboot on nanobsd), perhaps also only do the backup if a rule is found? Maybe something like this:

	if($found_rule > 0){
		if (!file_exists('/tmp/'.$pfsense_version.'.captiveportal.inc.backup')) {
			copy ($cp_file,'/tmp/'.$pfsense_version.'.captiveportal.inc.backup');
			}

		file_put_contents($cp_file,$new_cp_inc, LOCK_EX);
		}

This code is not in the older squid(2), so this problem is just in squid3.

well, it will need a mount_rw before this test and a mount_ro after.

Hi,

i'm using without any probs the squid3 (3.1.20 pkg 2.0.5_3) package on pfsense 2.0.1. thanks for this.

is it possible to use squid on 2 diffent ports on the same ip. for now it's '8080', additionally i want to use '3128'. 8080 should use the wan1 and 3128 should use the wan2 connection. is this in any way possible?

greets

marcelloc

you can try this config on custom options.

find the listening args you need and place there.

athompso

I don't understand what the point is of having XMLRPC sync without being able to listen on a CARP IP address.

can anyone tell me if there is a way to get this pkg to listen on a CARP IP (or even just listen on all interfaces!), and
what is an example use case for synchronized configs otherwise?

(Also see http://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/2591 and http://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/2592.)

Thanks,
