Kindly elaborate on "redirector being broken". Plz tell me what could be happening here.
Most likely you are not properly detecting EOF from Squid, causing your helpers to not exit properly when they should.
Squid sometimes (-k rotate, -k reconfigure, and a few other, all mentioned in cache.log) restarts the helpers. Whenever Squid restarts helpers it simply closes the input to the current helpers and starts new ones.
A similar thing happens when Squid is restarted. The input to the helpers is then closed as the old Squid process goes away, and the new Squid process starts new helpers. This too is mentioned in cache.log.
