Hey Amis,

Ok, so with the tools we have available, can we take this case and maybe
write a brief summary of changes between the squid features versions?

I can't guarantee time limit but it would be very helpful from the
community to get feedback in such cases.

If anyone have done this kind of task, please share with us the details so
others will be able to benefit from your invested time.

Thanks,
Eliezer

Regarding the OP question:

Upgrade for all Squid-3 is to:
 * read release notes of N thru M versions (as-needed) about existing 
feature changes

 * install the new version
 * run "squid -k parse" to identify mandatory changes
 * fix all "FATAL" and "ERROR" identified
 * run with new version

... look at all logged "NOTICE", "UPGRADE" etc, and the Release Notes 
new feature additions to work on operational improvements possible with 
the new version.

The Squid wiki ConfigExamples section does that. Or at least is supposed 
to, with examples per use-case.



FYI, this line of discussion you have is well off-topic for Akash's 
original question and I think is probably just adding confusion.

Hey Akash,
(Is this your first name?)
 
There are ways to test the config step by step with docker containers but it 
depends on the config size and complexity.
Even if you cannot share the squid.conf you can still summarize it to a degree.
There are 2 types of proxy services which can be implemented by Squid:
*   Forward
*   Reverse
 
With these there are tons of bricks which can be pilled up to achieve 
functionality.
@Alex and @Amos, can you try to help me compile a menu list of functionalities 
that Squid-Cache can be used for?
Ie as a forward proxy..
 
I believe that the project can offer a set of generic recipes for use cases 
that every support case will be able to look at to ask about.
Currently there are many questions which were answered but not all of them a 
documented enough to answer the use cases.
I can take this 4.15 to 6.9 as an example project and to document it for 
simplicity of others.
 
I will try to take a peek at the release notes from 4.15 till 6.9 to understand 
if there are specific things to be aware of for my specific use case.
 
The first thing I think should be mentioned is the list of deprecated helpers.
 
Thanks,
Eliezer

Hi Team,
 
We are running on squid ver 4.15 and want to update to n-1 of the latest ver(I 
believe 6.9 is the latest ver).
 
I want to understand if we can go straight from 4.15 to 6.x (n-1 of latest 
version) without any intermediary steps or do we have to  update to 
intermediary first and then move to the n-1 version of 6.9?
 
Kindly send us the detailed guidance!

Go straight to the latest v6. While doing that, study release notes for 
all the Squid versions you are skipping to flag configuration directives 
that you need to adjust (and other upgrade caveats).


Needless to say, test before you deploy the upgraded version -- a lot of 
things have changed since v4, and not all of the changes may be covered 
in release notes. When in doubt, ask (specific) questions.



HTH,

Alex.

Depends on the config structure.
If you can send me a private email with the config reduced sensitive
details it will to understand the scenario.
