Ok, This is not a big issue


 check ur /etc/hosts file

Make these entries:

127.0.0.1     localhost.localdomain    localhost
192.168.2.180                                    mycomputer
 { where 192.168.2.180 is ur  ipaddress  & mycomputer is ur hostname}
if u don't know ur hostname then try this command
#hostname
After that start squid service again by command:

#service squid restart
After that ur SQUID will definitly work

Enjoy
