Hello Amos,

Thanks for the reply!

The URL is like http://<FQND>/folder1/folder2/..../xxx.zip

If I use the ICP query by the per script it returned below:

UDP_HIT http://<FQND>/folder1/folder2/..../xxx.zip

But if I use below squidclient to request:
Squidclient -h localhost -p 80 -t 1 $URL

It return:

HTTP/1.0 405 Method Not Allowed
Date: Wed, 23 Jan 2013 08:09:09 GMT
Server: Apache/2.2.14 (Ubuntu)
Allow:
Vary: Accept-Encoding

Aha! the Vary header.

ICP operates with *only* the URL when deciding HIT/MISS. The Vary header means that there could be any one of multiple different objects stored for the one URL - this is a common cause of ICP producing false results. Only a lookup request with full HTTP request headers will be able to determine accurately whether the HTTP fetch will be a HIT or MISS. In your case it is a MISS with different Accept-Encoding headers from the original client and the squidclient tool (or two different clients).

So .... I suggest moving to the HTCP protocol which is an upgrade from ICP that can handle HTTP/1.1 header features like Vary.
Lookup htcp_port, htcp_access and cache_peer htcp= options.
