Hi Christos,

thanks for the quick reply.

I set up the combo Squid3 and c-icap and it works for most. However, I
get a couple of "ICAP protocol errors" during downloads.
The version of squid3 you are using is about 10 months old, please
upgrade to a newer version:

Okay, I upgraded to the current Debian sid sources. This is the following Squid and it has the icap client enabled right off the shelf:

Squid Cache: Version 3.0.PRE7
configure options: '--build=i486-linux-gnu' '--prefix=/usr' '--includedir=${prefix}/include' '--mandir=${prefix}/share/man' '--infodir=${prefix}/share/info' '--sysconfdir=/etc' '--localstatedir=/var' '--libexecdir=${prefix}/lib/squid3' '--disable-maintainer-mode' '--disable-dependency-tracking' '--srcdir=.' '--datadir=/usr/share/squid3' '--sysconfdir=/etc/squid3' '--mandir=/usr/share/man' '--with-cppunit-basedir=/usr' '--enable-inline' '--enable-async-io=8' '--enable-storeio=ufs,aufs,coss,diskd' '--enable-removal-policies=lru,heap' '--enable-poll' '--enable-delay-pools' '--enable-cache-digests' '--enable-snmp' '--enable-htcp' '--enable-select' '--enable-carp' '--enable-large-files' '--enable-underscores' '--enable-icap-client' '--enable-auth=basic,digest,ntlm' '--enable-basic-auth-helpers=LDAP,MSNT,NCSA,PAM,SASL,SMB,YP,getpwnam,multi-domain-NTLM' '--enable-ntlm-auth-helpers=SMB' '--enable-digest-auth-helpers=ldap,password' '--enable-external-acl-helpers=ip_user,ldap_group,session,unix_group,wbinfo_group' '--with-filedescriptors=65536' '--with-default-user=proxy' '--enable-epoll' '--enable-linux-netfilter' 'CC=cc' 'CFLAGS=-g -Wall -O2' 'CPPFLAGS=' 'CXXFLAGS=-g -Wall -O2' 'CXX=g++' 'LDFLAGS=' 'build_alias=i486-linux-gnu'

However, updating did not change the issue.

Well, unless there is really a known issue I would not like to leave the Debian tree, since once the system is working, I tend to forget watching for security updates.

Can anybody give me a hint on how to do better diagnosis on the problem?
Again upgrade your squid3 proxy to a newer version.

Done.

Always you can to send urls which are not working.

Also wireshark is a good tool :-)

I feared that answer. But since I do not know the ICAP protocol I do neither know what to expect. I have a log of that access and I would gladly send it do anybody, who knowns how to read it.

$ tcpdump -w icap-packets.dump -i lo port 1344

> About c-icap configuration please ask to the c-icap mailing list.

One of the first responses of c-icap appears to be

 500 Server Error

but later I also find packets sent from c-icap containing things like

 200 OK
 Moved Temporarily

and so on. So if that first message is not intended, it is probably an issue of c-icap.

Thanks for your help,
 - lars.
