Try focusing on the higher-level problem first, and use this mailing list to guide you from that problem to the right set of the lower-level symptoms as needed. > So I am left with 2 questions now. > - Why does squid behave like that? > - Second, so in my case HA Proxy is sending those headers to squid. > Since Connection is also hop by hop header , why is HAProxy adding that > header to request headers. The short answer to both questions is "this is how HTTP or HTTP agents work". This answer does not help you, of course. You need to either study HTTP RFCs (a lot of work!) or ask a higher-level question to get useful answers. What problem are you trying to fix?
