I have a particular SSL enabled site setup where every page is https. The client needed a redirector setup so that if a user typed just opaccess.companyname.com in the web browser the site would accept the request and forward them to the first https page. I have the following lines setup in my squid config file for this site: https_port 172.16.0.120:443 protocol=https cert=/usr/local/squid/etc/opcert.pem key=/usr/local/squid/etc/opcert.key vhost cache_peer 192.168.0.20 parent 443 0 no-query originserver ssl name=opaccess.companyname.com acl opaccess dstdomain opaccess.companyname.com http_access allow opaccess cache_peer_access opaccess.companyname.com allow opaccess Here is the issue. I started squid via command line so I can see it in a console by using the command /usr/local/squid/sbin/squid -NCd1. If I type in opaccess.companyname.com or https://opaccess.companyname.com in a web browser the site comes up and works as needed. However I get the following messages repeatedly in my squid console that is up when I am accessing pages on this particular site: 2007/02/15 08:29:04 | fwdNegotiateSSL: Error negotiating SSL connection on FD 23: error:140940F6:SSL routines:SSL3_READ_BYTES:unknown alert type (1/-1/0) 2007/02/15 08:29:04 | TCP connection to 192.168.0.20/443 failed The numbers after FD (e.g. 23) changes to different numbers as the errors repeat themselves. I do have another site running through the squid box that is working correctly and not throwing any errors. However, it is not setup with a redirector and is not https required on every page. Here is its config: https_port 172.16.0.106:443 protocol=https cert=/usr/local/squid/etc/mycert.pem key=/usr/local/squid/etc/mycert.key vhost cache_peer 192.168.0.06 parent 80 0 no-query originserver name=store.companyname.com acl companyname dstdomain store.companyname.com http_access allow companyname cache_peer_access store.companyname.com allow companyname Let me know what I am doing wrong here and I appreciate the help guys / gals!
