Hi! Has there been an fix to this yet? This has also been discussed in this thread: "Squid icap respmod is not caching" In the meantime I have been looking into it and have also come to the conclusion that it is related to "vary" in general and icap does not play any role in the issue - as soon as I add a Vary on the apache containing the content, the file becomes uncacheable independently from using icap or not. Full debug shows with the latest trunk version of squid Shows for a proxy request to http://www.sperl.org/test.css (which for testing purposes returns a "Vary:" header) 2013/12/09 05:52:31.751 kid1|

(only contains the URL) B2F8234EE3448A4D4BF1DC75049957AC the proxy request private ID We then have temporarily the proxied request ID: 64602E7E6AB4EAEAF19DD5097585466A Which immediately gets translated back: 444114273559944C370B6006D5DB69B8 We also create an id: 164CF6B5285D23A7E7789ED69BF05452 And we create a new object with: Content-Type : x-squid-internal/vary Surprisingly this does not get stored anywhere, so it gets deleted. Finally the object gets delivered and inserted into the store as '4D4B35818AB6D7147A9DFD1142793BD4' And via "squidclient mgr:objects" one finds: KEY 4D4B35818AB6D7147A9DFD1142793BD4 STORE_OK IN_MEMORY SWAPOUT_DONE PING_DONE CACHABLE,DISPATCHED,VALIDATED LV:1386597152 LU:1386597152 LM:1386597023 EX:-1 0 locks, 0 clients, 1 refs Swap Dir 0, File 0X000003 GET http://www.sperl.org/test.css vary_headers: accept-encoding inmem_lo: 0 inmem_hi: 328 swapout: 328 bytes queued Also the x-squid-internal/vary HTTPReply object for x-squid-internal/vary does not show up in cache. So we essentially miss the "correct" lookup for key "4D4B35818AB6D7147A9DFD1142793BD4" to get the "correct" object from cache - not 64602E7E6AB4EAEAF19DD5097585466A. As far as I can tell we would need is: * store the "x-squid-internal/vary" object in StoreEntry::setPublicKey * when looking for the "original" object in the store and it is not found, then search for the x-squid-internal/vary object to see if we find it and if so take the Vary header to look up the real object. (unfortunately I have not found out where that would need to happen) Maybe someone has an idea if the above is possible and where the logic would need to get added... Thanks, Martin P.s: if there is NO Vary header, then: 2013/12/09 05:52:31.751 kid1| HttpRequest.cc(696) storeId: sent back canonicalUrl:http://www.sperl.org/test.css 2013/12/09 05:52:31.751 kid1| store_dir.cc(935) get: storeGet: looking up 64602E7E6AB4EAEAF19DD5097585466A Finds the object immediately and delivers from cache... -----Original Message----- From: Amos Jeffries [mailto:squid3@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Donnerstag, 05.

There is something very strange happening with the special cache Vary-marker object used to identify different variants of the object behind the URL. for some reason those are not being cached for very long by by 3.2 and later which prevents the variants being HIT on sometimes.
