Squid not working

[smartflower2002]

Hey guys

i have installed opensuse11.2 and downloaded squid using yasts

i installed the dependencies which yasts told me, and also installed yasts manager for squid (or whatever that is call)

now i configured squid to run on a special port which is free


and when i start squid it works.. but it turns off automatically itself within 10 sec


when i use konsole to do it
service squid start

then services starts succesfully, but stops without ANY error, can u please help me in it

Don't remember correctly, but, you have to do something like

squid -z

to initialize its cache store first.
Also, check the logs.

yes i got all that stuff configured well using a YAST squid manager..








but still i have that problme

[smartflower2002]

yes it solved the error, the command line which u gave. thanks a lot


btw where is the cache ACTUALLY stored
coz the path i set is "/var/cache/squid"

but i cant see any cache file there at all....

thanks again
