[squid-users] Where are the objects?
I have a question regarding the storage of objects: Where is really saved to on disk? Is it in /var/log/squid3/access.log or in: /var/log/squid3/store.log? I've noticed that in the /var/log/squid3/cache swaplog there isn't any entries as stated below.

Objects are stored in the cache. This has several forms. Most use a directory structure. The swap.state is a journal of the currently stored objects. The *.log files are logs of things that have changed. store.log shows what has been added/removed from the cache, and when. access.log shows details about who is using the cache and for what. cache.log show administrative information about problems, and if set debugging information for tracking down problems. 2008/11/20 08:49:53| Ready to serve requests. 2008/11/20 08:50:13| Done scanning /var/log/squid3/cache swaplog (0 entries) 2008/11/20 08:50:13| Finished rebuilding storage from disk. 2008/11/20 08:50:13| 0 Entries scanned 2008/11/20 08:50:13| 0 Invalid entries. 2008/11/20 08:50:13| 0 With invalid flags. 2008/11/20 08:50:13| 0 Objects loaded. 2008/11/20 08:50:13| 0 Objects expired. 2008/11/20 08:50:13| 0 Objects cancelled. 2008/11/20 08:50:13| 0 Duplicate URLs purged. 2008/11/20 08:50:13| 0 Swapfile clashes avoided. 2008/11/20 08:50:13| Took 19.7 seconds ( 0.0 objects/sec). I take it you mean all the zeros there. They mean one of a few things. 1) no traffic is going through your Squid. nothing to be cached. 2) you are using memory-only cache. nothing gets stored on disk. 3) you have configured cache deny all. nothing allowed to store Amos -- Please be using Current Stable Squid 2.7.STABLE5 or 3.0.STABLE10 Current Beta Squid 3.1.0.2
RE: [squid-users] Where are the objects?
Hi, Squid saves the files to var/cache in subfolders, or any other folder you configure using cache_dir. If you shut down squid, delete the FILES in this folder and its subfolder (do not delete folders, just files), restart squid and access a cacheable file, you should see a new file added in a sub folder (as well as a swap file). The new file in one of the sub directories is the cached version of the resource. You can open it in a text editor. If the original resource was text (html, css, etc) it will be pretty easy to understand this file. If you do not see a file on disk, it is possible that the resource is not cacheable, or the configuration of your squid does not allow disk caching.
