Re: [squid-users] Need help. Squid won't start
Scratch that, back to square two. Squid and the squidguard processes are running. Proxy is accepting connections, but nothing is being blocked. From what I've read on the url_redirect_program command, squidGuard should take over on all filtering and ignore the squid config. All squid will do is pass the traffic to squidGuard and that is that. So, I'm thinking that the config in squid is correct, but something may be wrong with the squidGuard config. Am I barking up the wrong tree here? -Nick On Sun, Jul 6, 2008 at 9:08 AM, Nick Lehman [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: On Sun, Jun 29, 2008 at 3:27 PM, Henrik Nordstrom [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: On sön, 2008-06-29 at 10:15 -0500, Nick Lehman wrote: I figured out what was happening.

Am I barking up the wrong tree here? That's the usual situation when seeing this. And almost always there is some message in cache.log from squidguard telling what is wrong.. Trying to start squidguard manually as your cache_effective_user is also a very good test. Just log in as your cache_effective_user (using sudo or su) and try to run the url_rewrite_program command line from the shell. It should start without any warnings or errors.
