Re: [squid-users] Unable to open HTTP Socket in syslog

Hi Igor, 

Any same port is open ?

Squid works on 3128/tcp or other ?

Could you netstat -anop | grep PORT to know if u have any other software
tooks the same port.

 It's Ubuntu server 10.04. Squid version is 3.2.0.16
 
 I had very same configuration on Ubuntu 11, and it worked. 
 
 Please help me, where to look at in linux config or in squid config.
 Thank you,
 Igor

Hallo, zozo,

Du meintest am 19.03.12:

 userdemo@ubuntu-demo:~$ sudo cat /var/log/syslog |tail
 Mar 19 16:01:01 ubuntu-demo (squid-1): Unable to open HTTP Socket
 Mar 19 16:01:01 ubuntu-demo squid[1173]: Squid Parent: (squid-1)
 process 1193 exited with status 1

Please try to start squid again, wait 1 to 2 minutes and then examine  
the log file(s) again with

sudo tail -20 /var/log/syslog

or

sudo grep 'squid' /var/log/syslog

May be the last ten lines of /var/log/syslog don't show the reason.

But Unable to open HTTP Socket may point to the error.

Viele Gruesse!
