Hi Amos and all,

I forgot to mention that I tried loading the page with firefox,
chromium and IE and got the same results with all of them. And all of
them are able to load the page fine when using a direct connection to
the internet (without proxy).

Even so, I see that my first message wasn't somehow displayed properly
and might not be clear enough. Where it says 'But no sight of a ''"e
request.', I meant to say: 'But no sight of a
http://ad.doubleclick.net/adj/site011.opus/home request', meaning that
there is a GET request for the first url but not for the second (as
seen when not using squid but a direct connection to the internet).

I have taken traces of the HTTP traffic with tcpdump, which I show
below. The first one is using squid 2.7, which fails to load the ad
and the second with the direct connection to the internet, which works
flawlessly. As can be seen, when using squid, there is no data in the
reply from the server, whereas there is some in the reply to the same
request when using the direct connection, could the 'not requesting
second url' error be due to this ??

[squid-users] Problem at loading advert with Squid 2.7 & 3.1

2011-12-26 Thread feralert
Dear all,

Squid is not loading an advert in a web page frame which loads fine
when using a direct connection to the internet.
The versions used are 2.7.STABLE9-2.1 and 3.1.6-1.2 both in a debian
squezze with default configuration)

The url the frame tries to load is:

http://frame.cool.com/ad-frame/#&ad_wrap=ad-1&ad_url=http://ad.doubleclick.net/adj/site011.opus/home;Slot=Leaderboard;Pos=Top;Page=home;LoggedIn=No;tile=1;sz=728x90;&ad_timestamp=13249166700149


In squids log file I only see a line for 'http://frame.cool.com/ad-frame/':

1324916528.019   5405 192.168.5.237 TCP_REFRESH_MISS/200 445 GET
http://frame.cool.com/ad-frame/ - DIRECT/67.228.247.179 text/html

But no sight of a ''http://ad.doubleclick.net/adj/site011.opus/hom"e  request.


If I load the page in my computer (with a direct connection to the
internet) and watch http traffic with the "http fox" firefox
extension, I can see both requests.


Any help would be highly appreciated.

Cheers!
Fred.

[squid-users] TCP_MEM_HIT long elapsed time

2011-12-21 Thread feralert
Hi all,

Maybe a dump question: why does it take so long for some TCP_MEM_HITS
to 'show up', for example i got this:

Dec 21 17:37:15  42721 192.X.X.X TCP_MEM_HIT/200 68873 GET http://example.com

if TCP_MEM_HIT is "a valid copy of the requested object was in the
cache and it was in memory, thus avoiding disk accesses." then I would
seem logical it should come up almost immediately, but it seems it
doesn't, anyone kind enough to explain me why?


Cheers,
Fred.

Thank you Amos for the explanation and your help.

>From last Friday both servers pointing to www.citibank.com are
answering HTTP 1.0 petitions as they should, and therefore the problem
is gone. This confirms it wasn't a squid 2.7 issue but citibank's,
although I haven't got confirmation from them because they didn't care
to answer my emails.

As a workaround (thanks to Radoslaw, who came up with the idea) I have
done this:

I added an entry for www.citibank.com pointing to the working server
ip into /etc/hosts, then added "hosts_file /etc/hosts" into
squid.conf.

It works for the time being, but is not a final solution.

Thanks Amos,

A dig to www.citibank.com gives two different ips, changing one for
the other after a short period of time, one of them works fine and
squid 2.7 is able to get the page and the other one fails.

Using tcpdump I have taken captures for both, while using debian
package for squid 2.7.stable9, these are the results:

In both of them squid sends a "GET HTTP/1.0":

 1) The one that works replays with a "HTTP/1.1 301 Moved
Permanently", that TCP session is close and another one is open squid
now asking for the new URL, finally being able to retrieve it and
serve it fine.

 2) The other one doesnt reply at all to the inital "GET HTTP/1.0"
petition and therefore there are a few TCP retransmissions of it until
it receives a FIN,ACK packet from the server.

I tried the same but using squid 3.1.6 instead, again in both servers,
and it works in both!. The difference being that squid 3.1 instead of
sending a"GET HTTP/1.0" sends a "GET HTTP/1.1", getting the "HTTP/1.1
301" response in both cases. So, to the light of these results, is
seems that the second server (the one that fails) does not
understand/talk HTTP/1.0, dont you think? is this possible?.


Thank you,
Fred.

[squid-users] TCP_MISS/504 when accesing www.citibank.com

Hi all,

I'm new on the list so hi everyone and please do excuse my english.

And now down to bussiness :)

Im having trouble accessing www.citibank.com with squid 2.7. I'm
actually trying from two different platforms (Debian Lenny linux box
running 2.7.STABLE3 and NetBSD running  2.7.STABLE7), using different
connections to the internet and both getting weird results.


* ) With the NetBSD machine:

What i usually get in the browser is a " (110) Connection timed out",
and a "TCP_MISS/504" in the servers logs.

And in the browser I see that I get redirected to

trouble surfing the website. Also, if I try go directly to
"https://online.citibank.com"; works every time.

With this one I never gotten through (maybe I havent tried as many
