In my case, being the command to restart squid is "sudo service squid3 restart", I ran squid3 -z It looks like I had to STOP squid3 from running before it would take it. Just to be clear, even though I "SEE" the directories in the 4 cache locations I STILL should run the -z command? Is that because there is more to the -z command than just the creation of the file sturcture? Is it indexing the current cached files that are there too? I saved one download, and it looked like it created the structure the first time I did that. Now running the squid3 -z command this is what the system said: > Creating Swap Directories > /var/spool/squid3_cache_1 exists > /var/spool/squid3_cache_1/00 exists > Making directories in /var/spool/squid3_cache_1/00 > /var/spool/squid3_cache_1/01 exists > Making directories in /var/spool/squid3_cache_1/01 > /var/spool/squid3_cache_1/02 exists > Making directories in /var/spool/squid3_cache_1/02 > etc, etc, etc . . . so was it doing something more than what was already there? I am not sure just how to read this.
