Thanks Amos. I fixed the channel id problem by fixing storeurl rewriter perl script but still the video/x-flv response is getting RELEASED in store.log instead of SWAPOUT. Can you please read below cache.log and suggest what is still going wrong? Now "Rewrote to" message prints the right transformed URL. After this store tries to look up for the "6B2E83D66FC215C27ECFBA432AB7B5F6" key which returns a TCP MISS for the same key lookup for 2nd and third tries as well. Then one hash entry gets inserted with another key for the same big URL with different hash key for 2nd and 3rd time as well. This new key is "04BE27CFF614A3315F5CEB008464C453". I have also pasted HTTP response header for video/x-flv content from cache.log. After this I see "Deferring starting swapping out" message in cache.log. Can you please suggest why it is not swapping out? I am pasting below a section of squid.conf file as well. After this is the cache.log output. ----- squid.2.7.stable7 squid.conf youtube video related section starts----- #hierarchy_stoplist cgi-bin ? # The keyword for all youtube video files are

This missing channel ID is the only reason your client requests are not getting sent the wrong reply objects from cache. What should be happening is that the rewriter pulls off the channel ID and requested URL from the request. Then sends back the channel ID and altered URL *only*. Amos
