I have this squid on ubuntu 12.04 tls. Never version should I install from PPA (like https://launchpad.net/~pdffs/+archive/squid-stable)? Could you give be better source? I found the cause of the problems. This was the last line: cache_effective_group proxy It is also strange. Apparently, with this entry Squid does not have access to something ... But as I read that squid always starts on the powers of root:root, and then divert it to the given, or nobody:nobody. So the group nobody has a better right??
nobody:nobody is the FreeBSD built-in default. But the configuration file values override that default.
Pre-packaged Squid should be built with the correct built-in default for the OS they are packaged for. So you unless you have specific need to change the user and group it is best to leave the cache_effective_* settings out of your config file.
