Hi,
I am trying to configure squid to function as SSL cache proxy for an authenticated object (using login=PASS in the cache_peer directive)
To do that I’ve added the “cache-control=public, must-revalidate, max-age=0” directive to the back-end server whose files I would like to cache.
This works great for me when configuring a non-SSL(port 6666) SQUID-based proxy.
However when I access the proxy using SSL (port 4444 below) the cache file is deleted every time and the cache is not used.
Which is what max-age=0 means. "never use again". I think, leave that
off an it will do IMS on each request.
SQUID receives HTTPS requests, performs the SSL termination as expected, gets the data from the back end server and saves the file to the cache directory.
Then I pass the SQUID HTTP request, asking for the same file. SQUID serves the data from the cache.
Next step is to ask the same file with HTTPS. This time SQUID clears that file from the cache and download it from the back end server.
So I used Wireshark to identify the difference:
SQUID pass the HTTP request using the If-None-Match header while the HTTPS request doesn’t contain this directive in the header.
Anyone got any idea?

Please use Squid 2.6STABLE17+ or 3.0STABLE1+
There are serious security advisories out on all earlier releases.
