Hi all

In /var/log/squid/access.log on Ubuntu 8.04, squid 2.6.18-1ubuntu3 the log lines get
written to file with the epoch time, instead of the human-readable time.
How can I get squid to write to access.log with human-readable time?

You need a custom log format. copy the example squid logformat entry from squid.conf.documented / squid.conf.default and change the %ts.%03tu to %tl

  logformat customfmt %tl ....
  access_log /var/log/squid/access.log customfmt


NP: this will screw up any automatic log processors you use which process squid native log format. To fix that you may need to have two access_log outputs one in the custom and one in squid native format.


  logformat customfmt %tl ....
  access_log /var/log/squid/access-localtime.log customfmt
  access_log /var/log/squid/access.log squid
