Hello again and Happy New Year to all. Today I decided to review the cache.log file to see how things were running after receiving some complaints from users that there hasnt' been Internet a couple of times. I noticed that squid is restarting itself every once in a while. I dont know what' going on with squid or my configuration but, I'm getting a lot of errors and is not working properly. Please help me figure out what's wrong. Thank you in advanced for your help. Heres my squid.conf file: # Port Squid listens on http_port 192.168.2.1:3128 transparent # Access-lists (ACLs) will permit or deny hosts to access the proxy #acl lan-access src 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0 acl lan-access src 192.168.2.0/255.255.255.0 acl localhost src 127.0.0.1 acl all src 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0 # Access rule http_access allow localhost http_access allow lan-access http_access deny all maximum_object_size 100 MB cache_mem 100 MB access_log /var/log/squid/access.log cache_log /var/log/squid/cache.log cache_store_log /var/log/squid/store.log cache_dir ufs /var/log/squid/cache 100000 255 255 htcp_port 0 icp_port 0 extension_methods SEARCH NICK --------------------------------------------------------------------- Now, here's part of the cache.log file: 2008/12/19 12:32:53| Done reading /var/log/squid/cache swaplog (426776 entries) 2008/12/19 12:32:53| Finished rebuilding storage from disk. 2008/12/19 12:32:53| 419973 Entries scanned 2008/12/19 12:32:53| 0 Invalid entries. 2008/12/19 12:32:53| 0 With invalid flags. 2008/12/19 12:32:53| 418997 Objects loaded. 2008/12/19 12:32:53| 0 Objects expired. 2008/12/19 12:32:53| 640 Objects cancelled. 2008/12/19 12:32:53| 5918 Duplicate URLs purged. 2008/12/19 12:32:53| 192 Swapfile clashes avoided. 2008/12/19 12:32:53| Took 46.1 seconds (9096.9 objects/sec). 2008/12/19 12:32:53| Beginning Validation Procedure 2008/12/19 12:32:54| 262144 Entries Validated so far. 2008/12/19 12:32:54| storeLateRelease: released 45 objects 2008/12/19 12:32:56| Completed Validation Procedure 2008/12/19 12:32:56| Validated 826549 Entries 2008/12/19 12:32:56| store_swap_size = 24545080 2008/12/19 12:49:23| clientParseRequestMethod: Unsupported method in request '^C' 2008/12/19 12:49:23| clientProcessRequest: Invalid Request 2008/12/19 12:53:19| WARNING: unparseable HTTP header field {POST /mortalfm/ HTTP/1.0} 2008/12/19 13:01:32| WARNING: 1 swapin MD5 mismatches 2008/12/19 13:08:19| client_side.cc(2699) WARNING!
