Squid3 - New GUI with sync, normal and reverse proxy

Cino

Hi there.

I found a "bug" / "feature" when we have IPv6.
Seems that I have to add manually the IPv6 to listen on the squid (on the integration box)

Is this normal ?

Yes its normal. Its been that way since squid3 was added as a package. I would say its a feature that needs to be added to the GUI. To enable it and grab the interface IP from the interfaces you select

I installed version 0.3.0 today and ended my life. Computers with setted proxy manually, can not load pages. I had to take out the proxy settings of the LAN and did not want to do that.
Is there any way for me to go back to version 0.2.9? :'(
hugs!

Sure. Revert these patches via System Patches:
https://github.com/doktornotor/pfsense-packages/commit/a928e6df410383d00c19318b5c20459c50249a5a
https://github.com/doktornotor/pfsense-packages/commit/3f881d1e7c55ea875017764e3c6c8522fb344b84

I can assure you that reverting that will fix absolutely none of the issues you are having. Nothing changed in the Squid binaries, nothing changed in blacklists, banned hosts or anything like that, nothing changed in authentication.

P.S. For complete job, do not forget to revert https://github.com/pfsense/pfsense-packages/pull/1053 as well and chmod the pinger binary back to 0755 to get it nicely broken again.

Kindly test with latest Squid3 version (0.3.2). You either need to uninstall first, or reinstall it twice.

Well, when you don't have the inc file, it won't work.


Include squid.inc is missing!
...
Include file squid.inc could not be found for inclusion.

Download the file manually if it keeps failing for you. Sorry, this package manager seriously is a piece of garbage that fails to do any recovery.

xbipin

i figured out the issue, the isp connection was such that it used to drop the connection to pfsense server very often so install always used to miss those files due to timeout to server, i switched over to another connection and then it installed fine

doktornotor

Yeah, this happens on download failures… sadly, it manages to get itself into a state where it can be neither installed nor uninstalled rather often. Why it doesn't try to refetch the file instead of spitting "Oh noes, we are missing required include, kaboom" goes beyond me.

Sure.

Same issue with a reinstall (twice).

Will try again on a new update.

@aGeekHere:

There won't be any new update from me, sorry. Not really even sure what "same issue" are you talking about. Backup config, wipe the messed up box, reinstall, restore config and start from scratch, perhaps.

aGeekhere

The "same issue" is that the link to show squid's changes in the package manger is incorrect and gives

get 404 error

link
https://github.com/pfsense/pfsense-packages/commits/master/config/34

Anyway it is only minor, Found the correct link anyway

Not fixable in package, plus not really sure why it matters.
