Hello, I have a problem here with: [root@ablprx01 squid]# cat /etc/*release CentOS release 5.2 (Final) [root@ablprx01 squid]# rpm -qa|grep -i squid squid-2.6.STABLE6-5.el5_1.3 The web proxy process (used by 300-400 users) seems to run ok: [root@ablprx01 squid]# ps uawwwx|grep squid root 2304 0.0 0.0 7792 1268 ? Ss 08:45 0:00 squid -D squid 3082 27.7 0.9 46912 37068 ? R 10:21 32:18 (squid) -D squid 3083 0.0 0.0 1508 232 ? Ss 10:21 0:00 (unlinkd) [root@ablprx01 squid]# netstat -an|grep LISTEN tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:8080 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:3128 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN ......... but periodically it will stop working (web pages can't be displayed). The "service squid restart" command will display a lot of dots ..... but doesn't help and I have to reboot. I've checked /var/log/messages and also /var/log/squid/* but don't see any warning there. ifconfig doesn't report any errors: [root@ablprx01 squid]# ifconfig eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:16:35:5B:39:AE inet addr:10.121.42.32 Bcast:10.121.255.255 Mask:255.255.0.0 inet6 addr: fe80::216:35ff:fe5b:39ae/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:989588 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:1150056 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:590019020 (562.6 MiB) TX bytes:639895003 (610.2 MiB) Interrupt:185 and the disk space is plenty. Has anybody had a similar problem and how would you debug it please? Thank you for any hints Alex PS: Below my config file: [root@ablprx01 squid]# grep -v ^# /etc/squid/squid.conf | grep -v ^$ http_port 3128 http_port 8080 hierarchy_stoplist cgi-bin ? acl QUERY urlpath_regex cgi-bin \? cache deny QUERY acl apache rep_header Server ^Apache broken_vary_encoding allow apache cache_dir ufs /var/spool/squid 40000 16 256 access_log /var/log/squid/access.log squid dns_defnames on refresh_pattern ^ftp: 1440 20% 10080 refresh_pattern ^gopher: 1440 0% 1440 refresh_pattern . 0 20% 4320 acl all src 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0 acl manager proto cache_object acl localhost src 127.0.0.1/255.255.255.255 acl to_localhost dst 127.0.0.0/8 acl SSL_ports port 443 acl Safe_ports port 80 # http acl Safe_ports port 21 # ftp acl Safe_ports port 443 # https acl Safe_ports port 70 # gopher acl Safe_ports port 210 # wais acl Safe_ports port 1025-65535 # unregistered ports acl Safe_ports port 280 # http-mgmt acl Safe_ports port 488 # gss-http acl Safe_ports port 591 # filemaker acl Safe_ports port 777 # multiling http acl CONNECT method CONNECT http_access allow manager localhost http_access deny manager http_access deny !Safe_ports http_access deny CONNECT !SSL_ports acl our_networks src 10.121.0.0/16 172.25.0.0/16 10.122.1.0/24 http_access allow our_networks http_access allow localhost http_access deny all http_reply_access allow all icp_access allow all cache_mgr it@xxxxxxxxxx coredump_dir /var/spool/squid _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
