[squid-users] Mandrake's squid crashes spectacularly...
I have had two boxes (nearly identically configured) with the same updated Mandrake 10.1 squid packages crash today with the following message in cache.log: "assertion failed: MemBuf.c:188: "mb->buf && mb->max_capacity && mb->capacity" The Mandrake package that was installed was squid-2.5.STABLE6-2.3.101mdk. Does anyone have any ideas? Obviously it sounds like a memory error of some type- might it be something in squid.conf? I've been using essentially the same squid.conf for literally years on this hardware. One machine is a P4/1GB RAM configured with cache_mem 256 MB, the other is a P3/512MB RAM configured with cache_mem 128MB. I was also wondering if using the internal DNS mechanism is a good or bad idea in these recent versions of Squid. Thanks, Paul
