If you reconfigure Squid often, consider investing in better
reconfiguration support in Squid. The current reconfiguration handling
is too "heavy", not really suitable for frequent reconfigurations. You
may be disturbing user traffic every time you reconfigure.

Alternatively, redesign your configuration to avoid the need for
reconfiguring Squid when you add/remove users.

If those messages appear during or right after reconfigure, it is
probably a Squid bug (or lack of better hot reconfiguration support, to
be precise). I think I have seen them too, but I am not sure.

Ideally, you should file a bug report and provide the following info:

1) A cache.log file with debug_options set to ALL,9 and as few workers
with as little traffic as possible, while still reproducing the above
bug. The cache.log file should start when Squid starts and end when  the
FATAL messages are logged after a reconfigure attempt.

2) A squid.conf file used for #1 above. The simpler it is, the better.


Please note that if you are using different ports for different SMP
workers and/or excluding those ports from Coordinator, there will be
fewer folks interested in helping you with this problem (simply because
it lies outside what they think the intended SMP use model is).


HTH,

Alex.
