Hey, What version are you using? Squid since version 3.X has a built in interface which might fit your needs. You can see an example of usage at: http://wiki.squid-cache.org/Features/CacheManager#default What you will need to do is to access the proxy directly using a url like: http://mycache.example.com:3128/squid-internal-mgr/menu and for the info page from the menu: http://mycache.example.com:3128/squid-internal-mgr/info So unless you have a special need for the cache manger cgi you should use the http one.

Sorry, you are not currently allowed to request cache_object://127.0.0.1/ from this cache manager until you have authenticated yourself. ACL Access Denied cache.log: 2016/07/24 13:19:00| CacheManager: unknown@local=127.0.0.1:3128 remote=127.0.0.1:56590 FD 18 flags=1: password needed for 'menu' squid.conf: acl manager proto cache_object #next just for testing http_access allow manager all cachemgr_passwd mypasswd all On the embedded system, there is only a small http-server (uhttpd) running, _not_ apache or similar, so I suspect some special "requirement" not met on my system. It could be _either_ some special .configure option for squid (I have a downsized one, self-compiled) _or_ some speciality regarding my http-server, which otherwise works well. Any ideas ? -- View this message in context: http://squid-web-proxy-cache.1019090.n4.nabble.com/cachemgr-cgi-on-embedded-system-tp4678665.html Sent from the Squid - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ squid-users mailing list squid-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.squid-cache.org/listinfo/squid-users _______________________________________________ squid-users mailing list squid-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.squid-cache.org/listinfo/squid-users
