Package: squid
Version: 4.2-2
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

In a default install of squid, the following shows an assertion error
in /var/log/squid/cache.log:
squid -k rotate

cache.log:
2018/10/04 20:34:14 kid1| logfileRotate: daemon:/var/log/squid/access.log
2018/10/04 20:34:14 kid1| assertion failed: comm.cc:428: "!isOpen(conn->fd)"
2018/10/04 20:34:15 kid1| Set Current Directory to /var/spool/squid

Turns out if squid.conf has a cache_dir configuration, then the crash
does not happen. For example, from squid-deb-proxy:
cache_dir aufs /var/cache/squid-deb-proxy 40000 16 256

There is an upstream bug about this, to which I added the above information:

https://bugs.squid-cache.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4796

The upstream bug seems to have stalled, or maybe it was moved to
another forum. I didn't find it on github after a quick search.

Thanks!
