Hello, I built a squid proxy server to accelerate my web server because the web server has a very poor slow network(9600bps). Is it possible that the proxy server still continually responses to the web requests from the cache even if the real web server is down or unavailable temporally ? Thank you!
Yes possible. If any of several things are true: 1) objects requested are cached AND not expired or 2) web server sets Cache-Control: stale-if-error You will also want collapsed forwarding. These last two are available in Squid-2.7. But not ported to Squid-3.x yet. Amos -- Please be using Current Stable Squid 2.7.STABLE7 or 3.0.STABLE20 Current Beta Squid 3.1.0.14
