Hi, After years of frustration with Squid, I'm now using 32-bit Apache 2.2.0 as a caching web proxy for my group. The underlying OS is 64-bit Solaris 10 running on Opteron. My initial configuration attempt was $ ./configure --enable-proxy --enable-proxy-connect --enable-proxy-ftp \ --enable-proxy-http --enable-ssl --enable-file-cache \ --prefix=/aux0/apache2 --enable-cache --enable-disk-cache --enable-mem-cache --enable-deflate <IfModule mod_cache.c> <IfModule mod_disk_cache.c> CacheRoot /cache/apache CacheEnable disk / CacheDirLevels 5 CacheDirLength 3 </IfModule> <IfModule mod_mem_cache.c> CacheEnable mem / MCacheSize 40960 MCacheMaxObjectCount 10000 MCacheMinObjectSize 1 MCacheMaxObjectSize 20480 </IfModule> </IfModule> However, I've encountered two distinct problems; I'm hoping for help with these. Please don't send me back to Squid. - I see a lot of httpd's dying on SEGVs; depending on which modules I enable or disable, the stack traces change. I'm now running apache under libumem[1] with the debugging features turned on. I'm seeing crashes in cache_remove() [2]. - I've hit the text/css vs. text/plain bug which seems to have bothered other users. I've reviewed existing docs on this problem, including: http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Incorrect_MIME_Type_for_CSS_Files http://birdhouse.org/blog/2004/11/11/mime-vexation/#more-1379 and others. But I have yet to find a clear solution, and the problem seems to be sporadic. It was especially noticeable to my users when www.sun.com wasn't displaying correctly :) Time permitting I'll try to find the cause of the crashing; at the moment it seems to me that disabling all of the caching helps-- but that seems to defeat the point of running a "web cache."
