Shortening URLs passing through a squid hierarchy

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

I am responsible for a large number of squid caches serving most of the
schools in Oxfordshire. We have a central 'farm' of squid caches which
are the upstream parents to each of the school's local squid cache.

At one particular school I have a headmaster who hosts the school's blog
site on a remote web server running a product by Userland. When the
school tries to access the site through our cache hierarchy, the browser
shows:

Can't coerce the string "34 10" into a number because it contains
non-numeric characters.

If the school uses one of the central caches as their proxy it works. It
appears to me that this is a problem with the remote site being unable
to handle large strings in the request and I have found a bug for this.
I have tried to get assistance from the software company without luck.

Due to the way we are going to re-configure our central servers I need
to find a workaround to this problem.

Is there a way to get Squid to shorten the length of the address going
to the remote site?

Regards
