Re: PID file /var/run/squid.pid not readable AND Supervising process XXX which is not our child

[Alex K <rightkicktech@xxxxxxxxx>]

After proceeding with using the shipped service file, then systemctl daemon-reload I do not experience any stuck reboots at the moment.

Getting back to this, I face also issues that seems to be related with how systemd handles squid.

Frequently when I try restart the VM the VM is stuch at stopping squid and it never restarts.

Checking the differences between the autogenerated service file and the one shipped with squid I see:

diff /run/systemd/generator.late/squid.service squid3-3.5.23/tools/systemd/squid.service

So do I just overwrite the  squid.service of the system with the one shipped with squid?

Thanx,

systemd cannot cope with daemons like Squid-3. All you can do for now is
ensure that you use the init.d scripts to manage Squid. Do not use the
"service ..." commands provided by systemd.

Squid-4 packages that resolve these issues are in Debian experimental
awaiting an official upstream stable release.
 NP: the major bugs preventing upstream stable are not affecting the
Debian package features. You can use the Squid-4 package now if you wish
by adding that "experimental" repository to your apt sources.list,
update apt, then install/upgrade Squid with "apt-get -t experimental
install squid".
