squid cachemgr: Unknown host: localhost
Hi, I've a firewall/proxy with 3.7 running a named and transparent squid. I want to use cachemgr.cgi, so I've setup apache to listen on port 8080 and copied /usr/local/libexec/cachemgr.cgi to /var/www/cgi-bin Now, the Cache Manager Interface comes up on http://firewall:8080/cgi-bin/cachemgr.cgi, but whatever I enter (or if I simply press Continue), I always get an error page: Cache Manager Error Unknown host: localhost I'm stymied; dig localhost works. :-( Any clues? Thanks in advance Martin -- http://www.tm.oneiros.de

If `telnet localhost 22` (or any other listening port) works, then this isn't a problem for this mailing list.

Apache is chrooted so it has no access to /etc/hosts and /etc/resolv.conf. Try changing all ``localhost'' references to ``127.0.0.1'' in the CGI. -Ray-
