HI Guys,

I have a problem where the helpers are exiting after a period of time
in an external_acl_type setup.
The acl is defined as follows:

external_acl_type portal_page ipv4 children-idle=5 children-startup=5
ttl=60 negative_ttl=0 concurrency=20 %SRC
/usr/local/bin/portal-authenticator

portal-authenticator is a Golang program that runs indefinitely. I
have turned on debug_options ALL,1 82,9 but that has not indicated why
the helper exits. If i run the helper manually I can leave it for days
without it exiting. I have bumped up debug_options to ALL,9 to see
whether there is anything else I can see but so far nothing.

The debug options for Squid will not help with this. The helper is a completely separate program and all Squid can know is that the connection to it died before told it to shutdown. Exactly what your log snippet stated.

If the helper has any form of debugging you need to enable that and the helpers stderr output will appear in squid cache.log. Good luck.

HTH
