It covers the exemplar 'correct' virtual-hosting setup: http://wiki.squid-cache.org/ConfigExamples/Reverse/VirtualHosting and this covers the extension of handling multiple web servers behind one Squid: http://wiki.squid-cache.org/ConfigExamples/Reverse/MultipleWebservers Note that ACLs are used for fine-grained request routing which goes beyond the simple old domain name per cache_peer. I seriously advise you take a good look at converting your redirector ruleset to a set of Squid ACL and using the cache_peer_access directive to route requests around. It will simplify the software tool chain and prevent all the side effects of domain information leakage from URLs in the HTML and other headers. > Configuration so far: > - installed Apache2 > - install squid (sudo apt-get install squid). squid/2.6.STABLE18 is > installed at this time. > - install jesred (sudo apt-get install jesred) > - edited the squid.conf, jesred.conf & jesred.rules files > > Unfortunately all my HTTP requests result in "Unable to forward this > request at this time" error. > > Here are some log snippets when I receive the above error.
