          hi

          i did refresh still nothing there, i am still not sure what is package about, but i think it should give squid access report, any ways this is what i am still getting.

          LigthSquid diagnostic.
          Error : report folder '/var/lightsquid/report' not contain any valid data! Please run lightparser.pl (and check 'report' folder content)
          Please check config file !
          Variable value
          $tplpatph /usr/local/www/lightsquid/tpl
          $templatename base
          $langpatph /usr/local/share/lightsquid/lang
          $langname eng
          $reportpath /var/lightsquid/report
          Access to '/var/lightsquid/report' folder yes
          folder content:

          and following is my configuration:

          language: english
          bar color: orange
          report scheme: base
          ip resolve method (future): dns
          refresh scheduler: 10min
          squid rotate: every 1 day
          skip url: nothing is there

          i am using 1.2 beta-1 built on mon apr 30

          thanks

            Have you ticked the "Enabled logging" option in the squid config page?

            On a side note, it would be nice to see the LightSquid page titled something different from the squid pages to make it easier to work out which is which (actually, I'd like to see it under "Status"->"Proxy Logs" or similar).

            Finally, one bug - with the "IP Resolve Method" at DNS the domain name gets appended to the resolved name, resulting in "hostname.local.local".

                There is a bug in Webinterface integration.

                The menu Point has the same name as the proxy server.

                This is my machine:

                      hello.. it is really good job… It works fine for me...
                      instalation without any problems...  ;D
                      I have one question about squid log rotate scheduler. How it work? If I check rotate logs every 30 days that means the older logs will be overwritten? or archiving? I would like to keep my squid logs as long as it possible.
                      I know there is the option to disable log rotate, but if I understand well, lightsquid will be parsing all long log file.

                      :)

                        squid contains access.log file
                        if rotate executed - squid create new access.log and old rename to access.log.0
                        access.log->access.log0->access.log1 … ->access.log.9

                        if you rotate monthly - you may have 10 mont's archive
                        LightSquid parse by crontab task only access.log - it's NOW
                        next step - i set parsing only today date for more speed

                        By Refresh FULL - parsing ALL access.log.xx files

                            Great work.  I am ready to offer a commit to dvserg so that he can start taking care of these packages and get them added.

                              It would be interesting to see the Oversize Config flag
                              at the Webinterface on Configuration Page.

                              Curently ist just reporting all Users with mor than 10MB as
                              Oversized:

                              "Users who exceed 10.0 M bytes, per user quota"

                              Can you tell us in which config file I can change this?

                                inconfig '/usr/local/etc/lightsquid/lightsquid.cfg' see variable

                                #user maximum size per day limit (oversize)
                                $perusertrafficlimit = 1010241024;

                                but this change to firts webgui change.
                                For forever change see and modify '/usr/local/etc/lightsquid/lightsquid.cfg.dist' (webgui take this as source)

                                This option used only for reporting, but nothing to limit user quota
                                Do you suggest include this option to the gui?

                                  Even with no quota functionality it would be nice
                                  to be handled over the gui.

                                  Just for seeing who got traffic over a specific
                                  value in the report.

                                  Maybe you add it to the gui with the next
                                  release. Would be nice.

                                  Thanks so far and thit is an ecelent pakage.
                                  Maybe I spend some time for an german lang file
                                  in the next weeks to submit it to you.
