Hi. I'm learning to use squid.I have this problem: I have to configure squid to cache a webserver running on a machine with ip 192.168.11.224:8180. squid runs on another machine with ip 192.168.11.233. my config file is: http_port 80 http_port 8180 icp_port 0 htcp_port 0 hierarchy_stoplist cgi-bin ? #acl QUERY urlpath_regex cgi-bin \? #no_cache deny QUERY cache_dir ufs /usr/local/squid//var/cache 100 16 256 cache_access_log /usr/local/squid//var/logs/access.log cache_log /usr/local/squid//var/logs/cache.log cache_store_log /usr/local/squid//var/logs/store.log log_mime_hdrs on useragent_log /usr/local/squid/var/logs/useragent.log debug_options ALL,2 auth_param basic children 5 auth_param basic realm Squid proxy-caching web server auth_param basic credentialsttl 2 hours auth_param basic casesensitive off request_header_max_size 100 KB refresh_pattern ^ftp: 1440 20% 10080 refresh_pattern ^gopher: 1440 0% 1440 refresh_pattern . 100 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 443 563 acl Safe_ports port 80 # http acl Safe_ports port 21 # ftp acl Safe_ports port 443 563 # https, snews 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 deny !Safe_ports http_access allow all http_reply_access allow all icp_access allow all reply_header_max_size 100 KB cache_effective_user villari visible_hostname Villari httpd_accel_host 192.168.11.224 httpd_accel_port 8180 httpd_accel_single_host on # httpd_accel_with_proxy off httpd_accel_uses_host_header on snmp_port 0 coredump_dir /usr/local/squid//var/cache I get entry like these in my store.log file 1115130108.793 RELEASE -1 FFFFFFFF AB022F5CFC21892204D62A6426BEB6C8 200 1115130699 1115130699 0 text/html -1/30433 GET http://192.168.11.233:8180/jetspeed/media-type/html/user/anon/page/default.psml 1115130108.802 RELEASE -1 FFFFFFFF 9EE2FAF53F130D002880CC65F617BEB0 304 1115130699 -1 -1 unknown -1/0 GET http://192.168.11.233:8180/images/RCA/page-zoom.gif 1115130108.817 RELEASE -1 FFFFFFFF 113D5B5637E980ACFEC5287E845C8430 304 1115130699 -1 -1 unknown -1/0 GET http://192.168.11.233:8180/images/RCA/log_ca.gif 1115130108.819 RELEASE -1 FFFFFFFF 73401CD516305814F26C457357989A9B 304 1115130699 -1 -1 unknown -1/0 GET http://192.168.11.233:8180/images/RCA/log_un-eu.gif 1115130108.846 RELEASE -1 FFFFFFFF 40DF5000B78CFCCB15AFC3C6C63CAC72 304 1115130699 -1 -1 unknown -1/0 GET http://192.168.11.233:8180/images/RCA/log_soc-inf.gif and like these in my access.log file 1115130108.819 5 192.168.11.243 TCP_MISS/304 245 GET http://192.168.11.233:8180/images/RCA/log_un-eu.gif - DIRECT/192.168.11.224 - [Accept: */*\r\nReferer: http://192.168.11.233:8180/jetspeed/media-type/html/user/anon/page/default.psml\r\nAccept-Language: it\r\nAccept-Encoding: gzip, deflate\r\nIf-Modified-Since: Thu, 21 Apr 2005 15:20:26 GMT; length=722\r\nUser-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1; .NET CLR 1.1.4322)\r\nHost: 192.168.11.233:8180\r\nConnection: Keep-Alive\r\nCookie: JSESSIONID=F14AD9E137961761DCD68C050EDFC64D.tomcat1\r\n] [HTTP/1.1 304 Not Modified\r\nX-Powered-By: Servlet 2.4; Tomcat-5.0.28/JBoss-3.2.6 (build: CVSTag=JBoss_3_2_6 date=200410140106)\r\nDate: Tue, 03 May 2005 14:31:39 GMT\r\nServer: Apache-Coyote/1.1\r\nConnection: Keep-Alive\r\n\r] 1115130108.846 26 192.168.11.243 TCP_MISS/304 245 GET http://192.168.11.233:8180/images/RCA/log_soc-inf.gif - DIRECT/192.168.11.224 - [Accept: */*\r\nReferer: http://192.168.11.233:8180/jetspeed/media-type/html/user/anon/page/default.psml\r\nAccept-Language: it\r\nAccept-Encoding: gzip, deflate\r\nIf-Modified-Since: Thu, 21 Apr 2005 15:20:26 GMT; length=1536\r\nUser-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1; .NET CLR 1.1.4322)\r\nHost: 192.168.11.233:8180\r\nConnection: Keep-Alive\r\nCookie: JSESSIONID=F14AD9E137961761DCD68C050EDFC64D.tomcat1\r\n] [HTTP/1.1 304 Not Modified\r\nX-Powered-By: Servlet 2.4; Tomcat-5.0.28/JBoss-3.2.6 (build: CVSTag=JBoss_3_2_6 date=200410140106)\r\nDate: Tue, 03 May 2005 14:31:39 GMT\r\nServer: Apache-Coyote/1.1\r\nConnection: Keep-Alive\r\n\r] As You can see i have problems in caching psml pages and other. My question is : is my conf file "completely" wrong to store the whole dynamic and static contents of my webserver? and, is it posiible to use cached object even if webserver is down temporarily? Sorry if i missed something but i'm relly newbie. Thank you anyway, Matteo ------------------------------------------------- This mail sent through IMP: http://horde.org/imp/
