Greetings, Recently I have observed that the images on google maps are not getting caught in the squid cache (squid-2.5.9-10 on Debian Sarge). The actual images come in the form: http://kh.google.com/kh?v=3&t=tsrrtsqrrqqsq Is there any way I can cache these images in squid at all? (I don't mind patching, or violating the HTTP standard a bit (ala: reload-into-ims) as the cache is only serverd to a few people). Thanks, Brett The Cacheability Engine (http://www.web-caching.com/cacheability.html) tells me this: { http://kh.google.com/kh?v=3&t=tsrrtsqrrqqsq Expires 52 weeks 1 day from now (Fri, 22 Sep 2006 05:25:52 GMT) Cache-Control - Last-Modified 39 weeks 6 days ago (Fri, 17 Dec 2004 04:58:08 GMT) validation returned same object ETag - Content-Length 19.7K (20220) Server Keyhole Server 2.4 This object will be fresh for 52 weeks 1 day. It has a validator present, but when a conditional request was made with it, the same object was sent anyway. Because it contains a query ('?') in the URL, many caches will not keep this object. } Following are the headers for the request: { GET http://kh.google.com/kh?v=3&t=tsrrtsqrrqqsq HTTP/1.1 Host: kh.google.com User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i586; en-US; rv:1.7.10) Gecko/20050716 Firefox/1.0.6 Accept: image/png,*/*;q=0.5 Accept-Language: en-au,en;q=0.7,en-us;q=0.3 Accept-Encoding: gzip,deflate Accept-Charset: ISO-8859-1,utf-8;q=0.7,*;q=0.7 Keep-Alive: 300 Proxy-Connection: keep-alive Referer: http://maps.google.com/maps?ll=-32.272039,150.893784&spn=0.070736,0.123124&t=k&hl=en Cookie: khcookie=<snip> HTTP/1.x 200 OK Content-Type: image/jpeg Expires: Fri, 22 Sep 2006 04:38:28 GMT Last-Modified: Fri, 17 Dec 2004 04:58:08 GMT Server: Keyhole Server 2.4 Content-Length: 20220 Date: Thu, 22 Sep 2005 04:38:28 GMT X-Cache: MISS from <domain>.com.au X-Cache-Lookup: MISS from <domain>.com.au:3128 Proxy-Connection: close Connection: close }
