Hello,
I have a strange issue with at least one URL :
http://d.businessinsider.com/
The host does not exist and cannot be resolved. But instead of telling me that
Squid cannot resolve the host (as it does for example for the non existing
http://zfsdfo.sdfdsfrgq.com/ ), Squid gives no response, and make the browser
wait forever. This URL is included in the page :
http://www.businessinsider.com/best-company-perks-2011-5 which never loads.
While accessing the non existing URL, cache.log gives :
2012/04/16 10:48:06| ipcacheParse: No Address records in response to
'd.businessinsider.com'
No message is logged when accessing another non existing host.
Do I have a configuration issue or is this a Squid issue ?
This is a DNS configuration issue. Squid is a DNS client, not a
recursive resolver. It relies on your DNS server to perform all DNS
recursive lookups and identify the full response.
"No Address records in response" means that Squid received a possitive
response (domain *does* exist), but no IP addresses were supplied in
that response.
A quick dig shows:

You will see this recorded as CNAME-only response count in your DNS stats.
Why its hanging I'm not sure. You should be getting that resolver error
page back from these as well.
