disable it and it works fine
Thanks All,
Sébastien.

Hi guys,
Iget some troubles with squid3-stable8 when I try ti enable it on boot
Starting squid: WARNING: Cannot write log file: /var/logs/cache.log
/var/logs/cache.log: Permission denied

squid: ERROR: Could not read pid file

It work fine when I start it manualy.
You can find below what i did :
./configure --localstatedir=/var --prefix=/usr --exec-prefix=/usr
--sysconfdir=/etc/squid/ --enable-icmp --enable-arp-acl
--with-default-user=squid
make
make install
adduser squid
mkdir /var/logs
mkdir /var/cache
chown -R squid.squid /var/logs
chown -R squid.squid /var/cache
/usr/sbin/squid -z
OS is RedHat EL 5.1
What's wrong ?
Quick guess? When you test squid as root squid created the cache.log as
owner
root! Now that you are starting squid from an rc script it runs as user
squid
so needless to say cannot write a file created by root!
Try linux101!!
chown squid.squid /var/logs/cache.log
chown -R squid.squid /var/cache
Check the perms and ownerships on the rest of your files in /var/logs!
Cheers
