      On my lab environment I setup the latest snapshot on a hyper-v server using the image on the snapshots page. http://snapshots.pfsense.org/

      I was able to configure the router as close to our production router, however when it came to installing Squid3-dev, the process will not stay on despite a full update to clamAV and configuring the services to the best of my abilities.

      Under General logs squid attempts to start but is shut down for unknown reasons:

      Aug 21 12:08:03 squid[32221]: Squid Parent: (squid-1) process 44006 started

      Aug 21 12:08:58 Squid_Alarm[64747]: Reconfiguring filter…

      I've tried everything imaginable to get this to work, even under the release image I still get the same issue. Looking up the problem has not resulted in any solutions.

      It would be great if someone had any idea how to get this thing working....

        You might be able to retrieve more information about the frequent failures in the log files of squid.

        /var/squid/logs/cache.log

        Maybe a sample of the GUI produced "squid.conf" file might help to find the issue.

        /usr/pbi/squid-amd64/etc/squid/squid.conf

        You can use the command prompt menu in the GUI to issue "cat /var/squid/logs/cache.log" (Warning!!!! might be to big !!!Warning)
        Or you can connect WinSCP to retrieve and look at the above mentioned files.

          I am getting this error aswell.

          It is a fresh install of:
          2.2-BETA (amd64) built on Mon Oct 27 15:31:41 CDT 2014 FreeBSD 10.1-RC3

          with a fresh install of Squid3-dev 3.3.11_1 pkg 2.2.7

          System is 4 core intel (e3845), with 8gb ram and 160 hhd.

          I have merely installed pfsense, updated, then installed squid.
          and then checked system log.

              I was able to get the squid3-dev package running by issuing the following commands in a shell, after I had installed the package:

              ln -s /lib/libmd.so.6 /usr/lib/libmd5.so.1
              ln -s /usr/pbi/squid-amd64/local/etc/squid /usr/local/etc/squid
              ln -s /usr/pbi/squid-amd64/local/libexec/squid /usr/local/libexec/squid

              (this was on a amd64 2.2 install)

              I only confirmed that it was running, and sort of worked, no idea if it is stable in the long run.

              It will maybe (probably?) also break other things when updating the system or other packages.

                Hi,

                Any news on this - does it seem to be stable? Just tried (stock) squid3, and agree - it won't start / work.

                Thanks!

                  I can also confirm that Squid-3 will not start on 2.2-RC after a fresh install or upgrade. I am running 64bit edition.

                    Same problem here (but not in VM - on local hardware - 64bit edition too). Is there already any solution out there?

                    Thanks.

                      On 2.2, squid package is not -dev. If you're using clamav, you need save config and follow instructions on antivirus tab and then wait first freshclam run to finish. Then a stop and start of squid and c-icap service.

                      On 2.1.5 amd64 version squid antivirus integration will not work.
