Hi,
I have quite a large squidguard.conf file (around 80k or 890 lines).
I noticed SG had stopped filtering and first checked it hadn't
gone into emergency mode.. the log didn't report any errors.
So I tried:
echo "http://www.pornsite.com 10.10.9.8 /- testuser GET" | /usr/local/bin/squidGuard -c /usr/local/squid/etc/squidGuard.conf
and it doesn't redirect the URL as it should.
When I fiddled around with the config file, I found this weird
problem where if I insert some empty lines at the top it starts
working again.. I remove the empty lines (and they are empty),
it stops filtering (without spitting out any errors). seems flakey
but not directly related to filesize.
Anyone else seen this? I've c&p'ed the top of my conf file below.
Thanks,
Adrian.
