If you do "lsof /var/log | grep -i delete" does it show squid writing to a 
deleted access.log / cache.log?

Subject: [squid-users] Squid stopped working after cache.log and access.log 
rotation 


Hi All 

We recently installed Squid 3.5.12-1ubuntu7.3 on Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS. It ran 
fine at first but stopped working after a while. telnet server 3128 still 
works, i.e., opens a blank window, but Squid is just not accepting requests. 
Then we realized that there is no new access.log file. The access.log file 
stopped rotated at 6:24AM on 3/17/2017. It looks like Squid wasn't able to 
create a new access.log? We could not find any error message in syslog or the 
cache.log. We haven't rebooted the server because we want to know what went 
wrong. It isn't the firewall blocking Squid because Squid was working fine all 
the while until recently. Also after it stopped working, we disabled the 
firewall to see if it would work but it still didn't work. 

root@paproxy:/var/log/squid# ls -alt 
total 15536 
drwxr-xr-x 2 proxy proxy 4096 Mar 21 06:25 . 
-rw-r----- 1 proxy proxy 63 Mar 21 06:25 cache.log 
drwxrwxr-x 9 root syslog 4096 Mar 21 06:25 .. 
-rw-r----- 1 proxy proxy 63 Mar 20 06:25 cache.log.1 
-rw-r----- 1 proxy proxy 83 Mar 19 06:25 cache.log.2.gz 
-rw-r----- 1 proxy proxy 15759111 Mar 17 06:24 access.log.1 
-rw-r----- 1 proxy proxy 117223 Mar 17 05:52 netdb.state 

Any ideas what went wrong? 

Thank you very much in anticipation.
