      I doubt it.  Hypervisor issues are almost always related to hardware.  Why did you have to create the log dir?  SquidGuard logs are normally in /var/squidGuard/log/squidGuard.log.

        I made the directory since that is where the output from squidGuard -b -C all was looking for it.

          Weird.  I also notice you're running squid 2. It shouldn't affect your problem, but I would recommend running squid3.  2 is ancient and doesn't support a lot of the newer directives and web tech.

            I installed squid 3.  I have not used squid 2 in a long time.

            It was the OP that was running squid 2.  Seems like we both had the same problem with squidGuard though.  I will post back after trying a clean install.

              I had to uninstall SquidGuard , because it is production environment and can not do testing .
              is there any way to achieve content and url blocking, without squidgurad .
              I'm not using squid 3 , becuase it makes my cpu usage 99% (16 Gb ram , 8 cores , Intel Xeon)

                You could try DansGuardian or E2Guardian.

                  Ok Sir , I'll try to test the mentioned packages and update you .
                  Right now i have done blocking on squid level itself for you-tube etc .

                    Squid2 is years old already.  You should be using squid3.

                    I have installed Squid 3.4 , and running in Transparent Mode, I 'm able to see the SSL intercept option in GUI .
                    Can you please put some light on this feature (is there any change required on LAN  PC's  in terms of certificate import etc )
