Thanks for this, Eliezer, it makes sense that this option is not more used.
I define effective_group as squid, but do not specify effective_user.
squid user can access rwx to /var/cache/squid
Will try this wednesday morning...
Thanks again,
Christophe

I am not sure how you manage your rights on the server and also the
locations in it but,
Squid cache dir should be fully accessible using the "effective_user"
of squid.
It's the same for squid logs.
Make sure the whole directory tree is accessible using the squid user.
I just noticed that cache_swap_log is not used in 3.1 but only in 2.6
so just remove it.
A swap log should not be specified.
If you can still use it without errors in squid startup it's a bug and
should be reported.
So remove it and try to fix your permissions since this is your problem.

Eliezer

Thanks Gregory for your response.
unfortunately, I've already ran squid -z, both under root user and
squid user/
Making squid own /var/cache sounds me strange : all files/directories
under /var/cache will be owned by squid user, which is not acceptable
: a lot of other programs need to access to this trees.
Best regards,

Use the following commands to set the cache folder and then change
permissions, assuming squid user runs the squid instance.
# <path>/squid -z
# chown -R squid. /var/cache

Subject: Squid 3.1.10 CentOS : cache_swap_log (13)
Permission Denied
Hi,
I have the following problem : when I do not declare a cache dir, my
squid starts correctly and runs perfectly. When I uncomment the
cache_dir line, it fails with this message :
2012/12/18 11:31:18| /var/cache/squid/.00: (13) Permission denied
FATAL: commonUfsDirOpenSwapLog: Failed to open swap log.
My squid.conf is :
cache_dir aufs /drive/squid_cache/ 344064 64 64
coredump_dir /var/spool/squid
access_log none
cache_store_log none
cache_swap_log /var/cache/squid/
ls -al /var/cache returns this :
drwxrw-r--. 2 squid squid 4096 18 déc. 10:56 squid
ps -ef | grep squid does not show a squid running
I've read all threads on this, but found no solution.
Any help will be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Christophe
