- How do I choose to not have sites come from the cache? i.e. retrieve from the site every time?

Hi, I have 500 squidnt 2.7 stable 5 appliances out at distributed
offices. It is being reported to me that when connected to the local
caching appliance, intermittently they are getting page cannot
display messages when using webmail and adding attachments. If they
point to the upstream (parent) cache, they are not experiencing the
problem. What I have tried, is to put the URL for the webmail in the
nocache.conf file, so it doesn't cache this information, therefore I
would assume that its going direct (much the same way as if they
pointed their caching appliance to upstream server).
You assume wrong. "no_cache" directive is an obsolete spelling of
"cache" directive.
The only way to make requests go directly to an outside server without
involving Squid is to do it at the browser (explicit settings or
WPAD/PAC file) or the fireawall (interception bypass rules).
Once the request reaches Squid its too late to not handle.
> The upstream
(core) squid appliance is managed outside our company, so we dont
have anything to do with it, but it shouldn't matter either as it
works pointing directly to it. Does anyone have any suggestions to
what I could try or what I am doing wrong? I have pasted the local
caching appliance config to help with identifying the problem.
Thanks in advance.
'always_direct' is the directive to make Squid use a direct link to the
outside server instead of one of the cache_peer links.
I'd try setting:
always_direct allow nocache
Which will cut the proxy hierarchy to one layer and improve the chances
of a successful request.
I've seen this type of thing with a slow link and large uploaded file
(order of MB such as MS office generated files).

change that to "cache deny"

60GB of storage with a 30MB absolute cap on object size...
cap of 32MB worth of objects stored in RAM-cache at any point.

Two regex ACL in a row. See how much of that you can alter into
dstdomain or such. It's much faster.
Best configuration for regex is where a fast ACL like dstdomain is
tested first to short-circuit the regex from being needed on as much
traffic as possible.
> http_access allow all
Eeek! mostly-open proxy. Better define some security on that right quick.
Start with an ACL defining what the local client networks are.
If you intended this as an accelerator then please use the recommended
accelerator configs to secure your destinations.

well, you can set that to "none" the store log is mostly a deep debug
info log.
