Title: Squid on openSuse 10.2
Post by: v1kt0r on July 30, 2008, 08:52:25 PM

Hello all, I really need some help with my squid, I already configure it and it doesn't seem to work...  :-\

Here is my squid.conf

http_port 3128
cache_mem 16 MB
cache_dir ufs /var/cache/squid 800 16 256
acl prohibited url_regex src /etc/squid/prohibited
acl accesslisttest src "/etc/squid/accesslisttest"
http_access deny all
dns_testnames x.x.x.x
visible_hostname proxytest

And that's it, the other parameters are the default ones... apparently seems fine, but when I restart the squid I'm getting the next error message...

"Starting WWW-proxy squid - Warning: /var/run/squid.pid exists"

And i don't know what to do...  ???

I already configured the proxy server IP and the port in the client PC's but... nothing happened!!

Can you please help me??

I really really appreciate it!!

Best regards!  ;D

Hi.. first of all you have to add allow directives too.. or post full squid.conf here.

Secondly, your squid is already running.
If you made any changes, you can reconfigure it using :

/usr/sbin/squid -k reconfigure (depending upon the installation location of squid)
