Hi Guys,
Squid did not respond when I restarted my PC. I don't have any error
message in /etc/squid/squid.out. It seems that squid is not even
registering. Since I don't have an error message, I can't sort this out.
I also tried a restart, stop and start but nothing would do.
/etc/rc.d/init.d/ and then ./squid restart.
Anyone has any thought on this?
Which OS and Squid version are you running? What do you have for the
following directive in your squid.conf:
cache_log
If you had tried to restart Squid from /etc/rc.d/init.d and if Squid
failed to load, then Squid will report errors in cache.log unless you
have configured Squid not to generate a cache.log file!
By the way, just in case, check your hard drive disk space usage.
If nothing helps, check where the Squid binary is located from your
startup script in /etc/rc.d/init.d/squid.
Go to the directory where the Squid binary is residing and run:
./squid -NCd1
You will see the errors why your Squid is not starting or not responding
in the 1st place.
Thanking you ...
Cheers to all of you
Hi all,
I now have got an error message saying "could not determine fully qualified
host name. set visible host name" . I cant seem to get around this.
I would appreciate a hand.
Cheers to all
Publicly visible host needs a FQDN assigned and rDNS configured. All the
networking software on your host will be having problems with this.
Assuming you are on a unice;
/etc/hostname should contains a FQDN
OR in the rare event that you CANT do that;
it must contain a valid host name (ie 'proxy') and /etc/resolv.conf
must contain a domain entry that combines to form a FQDN <host>.<domain>
with rDNS that resolves to an IP asigned to that machine.
As a hack-around just for squid there is the visible_hostname directive,
although this will go nowhere to fixing the DNS/rDNS problems at the
cause of the message.
