Just for me to be clear, on the boxen affected, this is for all requests on those boxes, not just some? > Example error message on clients (edited):- > Failed to fetch > http://http.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/c/cairomm/libcairomm-1.0-1_1.8.4-3_i386.deb > > Connection failed > > Site is good, and on the same machine:- > # wget -t 0 > http://http.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/c/cairomm/libcairomm-1.0-1_1.8.4-3_i386.deb > --2012-03-06 14:18:10-- > http://http.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/c/cairomm/libcairomm-1.0-1_1.8.4-3_i386.deb > Resolving http.us.debian.org... 64.50.233.100, 64.50.236.52, > 128.30.2.36, ... > Connecting to http.us.debian.org|64.50.233.100|:80... connected. > HTTP request sent, awaiting response... 200 OK > Length: 72176 (70K) [application/x-debian-package] > Saving to: `libcairomm-1.0-1_1.8.4-3_i386.deb' > > 100%[=========================================>] 72,176 40.8K/s > in 1.7s > > 2012-03-06 14:18:16 (40.8 KB/s) - `libcairomm-1.0-1_1.8.4-3_i386.deb' > saved [72176/72176] > > /var/log/apt-cacher/error.log (edited) shows:- > Tue Mar 6 14:12:11 2012|error [16392]: Failed to open/create > libcairomm-1.0-1_1.8.4-3_i386.deb for return: Permission denied at > /usr/sbin/apt-cacher line 696, <GEN91> line 4. > > There is no /var/cache/apt-cacher/packages/ Really? What is in /var/cache/apt-cacher? What are the permissions in there? This looks like a configuration error/installation error.

But the one you quote is missing the full path. Did you edit that path out of the log message? If not, then cache_dir is not set, for some reason. But there is a default (/var/cache/apt-cacher/), so I can't see how it could not be set. > -- Configuration Files: > /etc/apt-cacher/apt-cacher.conf changed: > log_dir = /var/log/apt-cacher/ > group = www-data > user = www-data > allowed_hosts = 192.168.0.0/24 > generate_reports = 1 Is this really all that is in the config file? Could you check the setting of cache_dir when you point a browser to http://localhost:3142 Thanks Mark -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
