Hi all.
I have a RedHat 9 with Squid Cache version 2.5.STABLE1 for
i386-redhat-linux-gnu, and it starts on the boot machine.
Sometimes Squid failed to start on machine's boot. In messages i see
squid: Starting squid:
squid[1886]: Squid Parent: child process 1889 started
squid: .
last message repeated 19 times
squid:
rc: Starting squid: failed
but it works good! Squid accepts all requests. In cache.log there are
no errors...
I have 8 machines with the same problem. Any idea?
My guess would be that your init script starts Squid (successfully)
and looks for a pid file to verify that Squid is running (printing a
period every second for 20 seconds while waiting). I would further
speculate that the pid file is either being created in a location
other than the one that the init script expects it (likely
/var/run/squid.pid), or is not created due to a permissions issue.
Not having that pid file to fall back on will likely prevent your init
script from properly stopping squid (or reloading it for that
matter). But this is all just speculation.

Thanks for the answer.
In the squid's starting script the pid file is located in /var/run: the
pid file exist, and the permissions are
-rw-r--r-- 1 root squid squid.pid
so i think this is not the problem.
Sometimes Squid failed to start on machine's boot, but not always...
