ehm it seems to be a little bit difficult to upgrade Squid 2.3 to 2.5 under our SuSE Linux 7.2. We have round about 120 servers running SuSE 7.2 with Squid 2.3 and for this distribution does not exist any rpm-file for squid higher than 2.3.
The later source rpm should rebuild just fine..
I've tried to compile the sources of 2.5 but squid will crash after a client makes a connect to it.
Why?
I started squid with squid -sYD and ps ax showes that it is running. But after a connect from a client, the process crashes without any logoutput.
Have you looked in cache.log?
Is there no chance to create a custom logformat with squid 2.3 ?
Yes, but only if you are willing to pay for the time and support.
As far as I am concerned Squid-2.3 is a closed chapter, but money talks. But my advice would be to spend that money on looking into why Squid-2.5 fails for you rather than trying to backport the custom log formats support to Squid-2.3.
