Hello.

We have an issue with squid when it tries to re-forward / retry failed request even when forward_max_tries is set to 1. The situation when it happens is when there's no response, parent just closes the connection.
Relevant parts of configuration so you understand the architecture:
cache_peer 127.0.0.1 parent 18070 0 no-query no-digest no-netdb-exchange name=proxy
never_direct allow all
negative_ttl 0 seconds
forward_max_tries 1
retry_on_error off
The traffic flow from tcpdump is like this:
squid to parent
GET http://HOST/
parent to squid
ACK
waiting (no response for ~40 seconds)
parent to squid
FIN, ACK
squid to parent
FIN, ACK
parent to squid
FIN
Immediately after that:
squid to parent
GET http://HOST/ (again)
Debug logs from ALL,2:
…

It doesn't happen 100% times. Sometimes squid returns 502 after the 1st try, sometimes it retries once. Also I haven't seen more than 1 retry.
Could it be a bug? We'd really like to disable these retries.
