But at the very least it is clear you do not understand what "sudo" is or how to use it for non-root user accounts. Running any command "sudo X" will run the command X as *root* user. That is bad, both because its running a sensitive networking process with root privileges. And because its running a test very different to what we are telling you needs to be run. Running this: sudo -u squid X or this: su squid && X will run the command X as user 'squid' instead of user 'root'. That is the test we are writing about to figure out what the problem(s) are.
