Squid3 not working anymore when squidGuard is enabled

Hi guys!

I've set up my first pfSense appliance yesterday and configured it with Captive Portal an Squid3 running. So far everything works fine. But I need to have a web filter so I installed squidGuard. But when I enable squidGuard, squid doesn't work anymore and I get a timeout on my clients. Same thing when I use dansGuardian instead of squidGuard.
I've read my postings and even more tutorials about it, but I could'nt find out what I did wrong. Maybe someone could give me a hint?

Thank you very much!!!

Did you downloaded the and enabled the blacklists

Also important did you make a dummy entry in target category and "deny" in "common acl"

Hi,

I already set the blacklist, but the thing with the dummy entry was new to me.

That did it!

Thank you very much!!!
