I have installed and configured Squid 3 Stable 6
It works correctly and completely for days and even weeks, but all

/usr/local/squid/sbin/squid -k reconfigure
/usr/local/squid/sbin/squid -k parse
/usr/local/squid/sbin/squid
Even when I execute "ps ax | grep squid" the process of squid does
not appear. I have even restarted the server and executed squid
from zero, but it never comes. That is why I have had to format
and reinstall Linux and Squid.
That's a bit extreme! Do you have it working now?
Either way, if it doesn't start up you should check the cache.log.
That will tell you what the problem is. If you're not able to fix it
yourself and searching for the error message doesn't yield any
clues, you can ask here about it.
If squid isn't starting at all, it's usually because it's unable to
listen on any of the ports it's configured to. This typically means
either you've specified an IP address that isn't configured on the
system, or the IP/port it's listening on is being used by something
else.
Extreme indeed. But usually seen (by me at least) when squid logs exceed
the size of the drive. In which case cache.log will not contain the
crash message (that failed to write). If the drive is 100% full delete
something and restart squid.
If the drive is under 100%, check cache.log for the dying message about
what went wrong.
