Yes, I am sure it is running on 3128. I check the squid access log, I see the following: 1193801812.865 0 127.0.0.1 TCP_DENIED/403 1404 GET http://127.0.0.1/plain.t xt - NONE/- text/html 1193801816.006 0 127.0.0.1 TCP_DENIED/403 1404 GET http://127.0.0.1/plain.t xt - NONE/- text/html 1193805983.331 0 127.0.0.1 TCP_DENIED/400 1503 GET www.google.com - NONE/- text/html 1193806012.286 0 127.0.0.1 TCP_DENIED/403 1394 GET http://www.google.com - NONE/- text/html > > > Or you need to add the following ACL > > acl localhost src 127.0.0.1/32 > http_access allow localhost > > Note: Remember to add it before the "http_access deny all" ACL > I have these as my ACL (I am just using the defaults in squid 2.6 16): Can you please tell me why do I need to add '' acl localhost src 127.0.0.1/32"? And I tried 'http://www.google.com' (not just 127.0.0.1/plain.txt) and it does not work either. #Recommended minimum configuration: acl all src 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0 acl manager proto cache_object acl localhost src 127.0.0.1/255.255.255.255 acl to_localhost dst 127.0.0.0/8 acl SSL_ports port 443 acl Safe_ports port 80 # http acl Safe_ports port 21 # ftp acl Safe_ports port 443 # https acl Safe_ports port 70 # gopher acl Safe_ports port 210 # wais acl Safe_ports port 1025-65535 # unregistered ports acl Safe_ports port 280 # http-mgmt acl Safe_ports port 488 # gss-http acl Safe_ports port 591 # filemaker acl Safe_ports port 777 # multiling http acl CONNECT method CONNECT # TAG: http_access # Allowing or Denying access based on defined access lists # # Access to the HTTP port: # http_access allow|deny [!]aclname ... # # NOTE on default values: # # If there are no "access" lines present, the default is to deny # the request. # # If none of the "access" lines cause a match, the default is the # opposite of the last line in the list.
