Hello,
I used external helper with squid 3.5.xx several years without any
problem.
Now I tried to upgrade to squid 4.0.21 and squid seems to work fine, but
I get many logentries like:
--snip--
2017/09/14 07:43:12 kid3| WARNING: blockhostsdomain ACL is used in context
without an ALE state. Assuming mismatch.
2017/09/14 07:43:12 kid3| WARNING: blockhostsip ACL is used in context without
an ALE state. Assuming mismatch.
2017/09/14 07:44:12 kid4| WARNING: blockhostsdomain ACL is used in context
without an ALE state. Assuming mismatch.
2017/09/14 07:44:12 kid4| WARNING: blockhostsip ACL is used in context without
an ALE state. Assuming mismatch.
--snip--
when I switched the acls to a file list, the warnings are gone.
my acls for external helpers look like:
external_acl_type blockhostiptype ttl=3600 negative_ttl=3600 grace=50
children-max=10 children-startup=2 %DST /usr/bin/dnsbl-ip.pl bl
acl blockhostsip external blockhostiptype
external_acl_type blockhostdomaintype ttl=3600 negative_ttl=3600 grace=50
children-max=10 children-startup=2 %DST /usr/bin/dnsbl.pl dbl
acl blockhostsdomain external blockhostdomaintype
when I replaced to above lines with this two, the warnings are gone:
acl blockhostsip dst "/etc/squid/blockhosts.ips"
acl blockhostsdomain dstdomain "/etc/squid/blockhosts.domains"
but I want to use the external helpers, because the lists were updated
many times a day and a reconfigure of squid has an impact of 2-3 seconds.
As I said before, squid works fine and checks the acls, but I get many
warnings in the cache.log and don't know the cause of it.

I do not get viruses because I do not use MS software.
If you use Outlook then please do not put my email address in your
address-book so that WHEN you get a virus it won't use my address in the
From field.
