Hi Checking the db and echoing OK or ERR based on that is easy for me to implement in php, for now I did add the following : external_acl_type MyAclHelper %SRC /etc/squid/myaclhelper.php myaclhelper.php only contains <?php echo "OK"; ?> Later on I want to replace that with a mysqldb check and read stdin to obtain %SRC, but for now I just want this to work, when squid starts I get the following in the log : The MyAclHelper helpers are crashing too rapidly, need help! Any help with this simple setup please ?
