I do not know whether the above problem is the primary problem in your setup, but it is a red flag. Transactions on the same connection may get stuck after that message; it is essentially a Squid bug.

I am not sure at all, but this bug might be related to Bug 5187 workaround that went into Squid v6.2 (commit c44cfe7): https://bugs.squid-cache.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5187

Does Squid accept new TCP connections after it enters what you describe as a dead state? For example, does "telnet 127.0.0.1 8080" establishes a connection if executed on the same machine as Squid?

Yes it establishes connection. But I do not know what to do next. Browser showed "Connection timed out" message. But I believe browser's also connected but nothing happened afterwards.


Ah ... that port is an interception port. It should *not* connect.

Please ensure your firewall contains the "-t mangle" rules for each interception port you use. As shown at <https://wiki.squid-cache.org/ConfigExamples/Intercept/LinuxDnat>

Is it possible that you are trying to kill the wrong process? You should be killing this process AFAICT:

I did not clarify but all processes needed SIGKILL and vanished except the Dead squid process which still remained.

# systemctl stop squid

Dec 19 08:46:38 mumbai systemd[1]: squid.service: State 'stop-sigterm' timed out. Killing.


FWIW, Squid default shutdown grace period for clients to disconnect is longer that systemd typically is willing to wait for a service shutdown.

Please set "shutdown_lifetime 10 seconds" in your squid.conf.


Dec 19 08:46:38 mumbai systemd[1]: squid.service: Killing process 601 (squid) with signal SIGKILL. Dec 19 08:46:38 mumbai systemd[1]: squid.service: Killing process 604 (squid) with signal SIGKILL.

This is systemd running the command " kill -9 604 ".

Per the Squid code: "XXX: In SMP mode, uncatchable SIGKILL only kills the master process".

You can try SIGTERM instead, and repeat up to 3 times if the first does not close the process.
