[Lias] squid pid

[Daniel Hooper]

Peter,

 

Start with a clean squid.conf, eg.. get the one that is shipped with
your distrib, modify the ACL's to allow your network range to use the
proxy server.

 

Depending on your distribution but in the majority of them you'd
start/restart squid by /etc/init.d/squid start

 

If its already running, try squid -k reconfigure 

 

That will reconfigure squid on the fly.

 

Also, double check your cache, it should live in /var/spool/squid, if
there's nothing in there, do squid -z to create the directories.

 

Best of luck.

Subject: [Lias] squid pid

 

I have a problem with squid.

 

When I type the command service squid restart I get a response that
there is no running copy.

If I type service squid status the response is:

Squid (pid 1599 1233 1204) is running

Squid: error: no running copy

 

When I make changes to the squid.conf  file the changes do not take
effect if I  restart squid,  - I have to reboot.

 

I have seen the response in the squid faq but really do not understand
how to carry out the instructions there.

 

Can any one help in rudimentary terms?

 

Peter
