Squidguard can not change blacklist URL

ciarocci

When trying to change the blacklist URL to anything other than the default one I am unable to. I change it, click Save at the bottom and it goes right back to the default one. I change it and click "Upload URL" and it just goes right back to the default one. Any ideas? Am I doing something wrong? I'd like to change that URL because frankly it is grossly outdated (the file is from 2002).

This is normal behavior.
I did not do conservation, as well as downloading black sheet does not believe such a frequent occurrence.
This really need to store URL?

So we are not able to download other lists? The one you have in there is ancient and not-maintained. Frankly it is a poor choice for filtering with.

I would have to agree with ciarocci. That type of list is continuously changing.

ciarocci, where would you be getting an updated list from?

You can do this - this is not problem, if you only replaced default blacklist url to you self.
But you URL not stored in config, as a proxy settings. In next time You will enter yo self URL once more..

I have done that and Squidguard continuously downloads the default one over and over no matter what I put in that field. Being able to change that field and save it is very important IMHO.

squidguard.org has a bunch of blacklists you can use, but I found the only one that seems to be updated regularly is found at:

http://www.shallalist.de/

If you have to force one to stay in that field, it should be the one at http://www.shallalist.de/.

I taked public small blacklist for base settings. If you want - i can adding update this field to config.

DVSerg,

I think being able to set this is important. I do not want to type in a URL every day to update my list.

However, the bigger problem I see here is that no matter what I put in that field currently, it only downloads the list that is there by default. I can not download the list of my choice.

HTTPS mode hav biggest problem as this.
Ok, in next update i will adding this options (e.g. black list URL store)

ciarocci

I'm starting to think HTTPS webGUI isn't worth it. :-) Everything I have trouble with is because I'm using HTTPS for my webGUI.

DVSerg,

This works as expected. Thank you.
