Re: [squid-users] Problem with start squid
Hello, Try with: squid -d 1 and see what the error message is, maybe your logfiles are to big. Egi [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I have installed and configured Squid 3 Stable 6, with the following options: ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/squid --enable-linux-netfilter --enable-arp-acl --enable-ssl --enable-snmp make all make install It works correctly and completely for days and even weeks, but all of a sudden, and without reason it stops working, and there is nothing I can do to put it again. I have tried with the following aids, but nothing happens. /usr/local/squid/sbin/squid -k reconfigure /usr/local/squid/sbin/squid -k parse /usr/local/squid/sbin/squid Even when I execute ps ax | grep squid the process of squid does not appear. I have even restarted the server and executed squid from zero, but it never comes. That is why I have had to format and reinstall Linux and Squid. Any suggestion?
Re: [squid-users] RAM and Optimization Questions
Hello, I use webmin, just to graphically see the ratio of RAM and HDD space... Thanks Egi Henrik Nordstrom wrote: On fre, 2008-07-04 at 17:57 +0200, Egi wrote: Hello!

[squid-users] RAM and Optimization Questions
Hello! I noticed that in the late hours (by night) when the traffic is very low, the amount of memory used by squid is very high, almost 2-2.5 times bigger compared to the amount of RAM used when the traffic to the squid is higher. - cache_dir aufs /cache1 138000 16 256 cache_dir aufs /cache2 138000 16 256 cache_dir aufs /cache3 138000 16 256 cache_mem 512 MB --- We have 4 SCSI HDD's 1 for the system and 3 other for caching (135GB each at 15000 rpm formated with reiserfs), also we have 16GB of RAM, and in normal traffic the RAM utilization is: 4.57 GB. We see that we averagely can save 18% of our total traffic (Highest: 7.5 Mbit of 35 Mbit) and this server has been running for 1 week (Now the disks are full). How is it possible that the RAM gets more occupied when there isn't traffic? Also are our savings ok (18%)? Do you recommend any tuning options? Thank You!
[squid-users] memory_pools parameter
Hello! In the archives of this list i found a topic about memory_pools, it said that if memory_pools is set to on squid will save a lot of memory, and also if its set to on it must have a memory_pool_limit. Why is that ? Will memory_pools off and memory_pool_limit increase the performance of Squid3 ? What should be the size of memory_pool_limit? Thank you!
[squid-users] Connection reset by peer error...

Re: [squid-users] Squid and Cacti problem
Hello, I managed to fix it by reinstalling the cacti template for squid, i think there was a problem with the interpretation of the values. Because the returned value from the snmp was in bit and my template intrpreted it as Kbits. Thank You!

How long has your Squid been running? Thinking you maybe got bitten by this: http://www.squid-cache.org/Versions/v3/HEAD/changesets/b9032.patch but on the other hand this bug has always been there since for as long as Squid has supported SNMP, so maybe not... The above bug will make some false readings when the counters gets above 0xFF80 until they wrap around to 0x again... Regards Henrik
