Package: squid Version: 2.7.STABLE3-2 Severity: normal This line in /etc/init.d/squid fails in the case that a coss cache_dir is specified as a symbolic link, or a raw block device:
if [ -d "$cdr" -a ! -d "$cdr/00" ] || [ "$ctp" = "coss" -a ! -f "$cdr" ] The '-f "$cdr"' is the problem. Maybe -e, or -w would be better? FWIW, the squid.conf line I'm using is: cache_dir coss /dev/disk/by-id/ata-TOSHIBA_MK6034GAX_Y6L3T280T-part5 493 max-size=1MB Thanks, Tim. -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0 APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-1-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB, LC_CTYPE=en_GB (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages squid depends on: ii adduser 3.110 add and remove users and groups ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.24 Debian configuration management sy ii libc6 2.7-18 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libcomerr2 1.41.3-1 common error description library ii libdb4.6 4.6.21-11 Berkeley v4.6 Database Libraries [ ii libkrb53 1.6.dfsg.4~beta1-5 MIT Kerberos runtime libraries ii libldap-2.4-2 2.4.11-1 OpenLDAP libraries ii libpam0g 1.0.1-5 Pluggable Authentication Modules l ii logrotate 3.7.1-5 Log rotation utility ii lsb-base 3.2-20 Linux Standard Base 3.2 init scrip ii netbase 4.34 Basic TCP/IP networking system ii squid-common 2.7.STABLE3-2 Internet object cache (WWW proxy c squid recommends no packages.
