Not fully 1.1, but from (0.9 + 1.0) to fully 1.0 + partial 1.1. Which is weird because 2.6 went almost fully 1.0 as well quite a while back. > P.......HTTP/1.0.400.Bad.Request..Server:.squid/3.0.STABLE10..Mime-Versi > on:.1.0..Date:.Mon,.10.Nov.2008.22:49:53 (+content) > > >>> acl our_site dstdomain cached.whatever.com >>> acl Origin-Whatever dst 1.1.1.1 >>> acl acceleratedPort port 80 >>> acl HealthChecks urlpath_regex mgmt/alive >>> always_direct allow HealthChecks >> >> This forces HealthChecks to take an abnormal path.

Nothing more. if the domain itself resolves to allow direct requests its okay, but accelerators should be setup so the domain resolves to Squid which can cause issues. > I don't want them cached or logged, just proxied from > the origin - so keep 'cache deny HealthChecks' and dump the > 'always_direct allow HealthChecks'?

That confirms my idea that the HealthChecks request is missing the ' HTTP/1.0' part of the request string. The first line of every valid accelerated request should look something like this: "GET /mgmt/alive HTTP/1.0\n" Amos
