Hello, is it possible to force squid to cache an image, which never changes, but which is loaded with different parametes after a question-mark? Example: http://www.example.com/pixel.gif?page=index.html&rand=4125422 I use this to measure the traffic on my webpage. A Javascript loads the image with different parameters (idea borrowed from Google-Analytics) and later a small perl-script examines the log and does some accounting. The problem: The file "pixel.gif" never changes, but due to the question-mark and the changing parameters squid always connects to apache and fetches the same file (=pixel.gif) from the apache daemon. I would like to config the squid in a way, that it caches the file and serves it from memory. Is this possible?
find the acl "QUERY" that matches cgi-bin and ?. just before this acl, add the acl to allow caching of the file.
something like this: acl MYDOMAIN dstdomain .example.com (match to your specific need) cache allow MYDOMAIN acl QUERY urlpath_regex cgi-bin \? no_cache deny QUERY hope this works
