Hi, I have succesfully setup a squid instance (running as a service) on a Windows 2003 Server. Now I would like to setup a second instance. I followed the hints, but the second service starts and then stops immediately. Doing it all from the CLI, I get "Squid is already running! Process ID 3352", as if two squids parallel won't work. Each works fine, when it is started alone (CLI or as service). Starting the second one brings up the message above (with different PID). Any ideas? TIA Stefan My setup (Squid Cache version 2.5.STABLE10-NT for i686-pc-winnt): ######################################################################## ########## Instance 1: D:/squid-direct/ as directory structure My command line for starting squid: squid -f d:/squid-direct/etc/squid.conf Installing as a service: D:\squid-direct\sbin>squid -i -f d:/squid-direct/etc/squid.conf -n squidDirect snippet from conf: # LOGFILE PATHNAMES AND CACHE DIRECTORIES # ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ----- cache_dir ufs d:/squid-direct/var/spool/squid 300 16 256 cache_access_log d:/squid-direct/var/logs/squid/access.log cache_log d:/squid-direct/var/logs/squid/cache.lo ######################################################################## ########## Instance 2: D:/squid-peer/ as directory structure My command line for starting squid: squid -f d:/squid-peer/etc/squid.conf Installing as a service: D:\squid-peer\sbin>squid -i -f d:/squid-peer/etc/squid.conf -n squidPeer snippet from conf: # LOGFILE PATHNAMES AND CACHE DIRECTORIES # ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ----- cache_dir ufs d:/squid-peer/var/spool/squid 300 16 256 cache_access_log d:/squid-peer/var/logs/squid/access.log cache_log d:/squid-peer/var/logs/squid/cache.log ######################################################################## ##########
