It sounds like your daemon quits without Squid permission. Logging daemons should not do that because Squid considers such behavior a FATAL error. > I have read all possible docs about > writing a custom logfile_daemon, but I have had no luck.

Since you did not share your code, I have to ask: Does your shell script actually read logging commands sent by Squid? Or does it simply quit after writing some "random text" to some file? Squid expects the daemon to run until the daemon reads EOF on stdin... The daemon does not have to handle the commands it reads, but it has to keep reading them until EOF. If you want to add debugging to your daemon, try writing write to stderr. For the list of logging commands, please see https://wiki.squid-cache.org/Features/LogModules#Daemon_Message_Protocol a.k.a. https://wiki.squid-cache.org/Features/AddonHelpers#Logging HTH, Alex. > The only line I have added to my squid.conf is "logfile_daemon > /etc/squid/hi.sh".
