You seem to be still focussing on chown/chmod alone (filesystem level) and not taking SELinux permissions (kernel level) into account - despite having been told to check them several times already. Do this: * erase cache_effective_group from your squid.conf * comment out the cache_dir /var/spool/squid2 lines in your squid.conf * run the command line and fix any ERROR or FATAL that come up: squid -k parse * run command line (dont worry if it fails or says already a member): adduser squid squid * run the command lines: chmod -R 777 /var/spool/squid2 rm -rf /var/spool/squid2/* chmod 755 /var/spool/squid2 chown squid:squid /var/spool/squid2 test -x /sbin/restorecon && restorecon -R /var/spool/squid2 * un-comment the cache_dir /var/spool/squid2 line in squid.conf * run these command lines: squid -z test -x /sbin/restorecon && restorecon -R /var/spool/squid2 squid -k check Amos _______________________________________________ squid-users mailing list squid-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.squid-cache.org/listinfo/squid-users
