Are you also starting the squid with the other configuration file? (squid -f [configile])
The init.d script for squid2 is pasted below:

it makes no difference to the error message by adding or removing the '-f /etc/squid2.conf' to the parameters at the top of the script.
Thanks again for further help,

Hi all,
As far as I can tell, I have followed everything I'm supposed to have to make this work. I wish to run two instances of Squid on the same machine: Squid/2.4.STABLE6 on Debian Woody stable.
I have squid.conf and squid2.conf with the relevant settings altered.
Squid.conf listens on port 3128 on the external IP. I have not altered the PID file path for this one.
Squid2.conf listens on port 8085 on 127.0.0.1 I have altered the PID file path to be /var/run/squid2.pid I have created a different cache directory etc, and specified these within the squid2.conf file, along with checkong relevant permissions on these directories.
I have then copied the squid init.d script and called this squid2. I have altered squid2 to have a different name string, and altered all relevant entries within this script to point to the squid2 details eg cache directory etc. This squid2 script is set to use 'squid2.pid' as I've specified in squid2.conf
Yet still, when I do 'squid2 start' it always returns 'Squid is already running! Process ID 213'
I'm now lost. Am I missing something really obvious here? I've been trying to get this going for a good few weeks now!
Major thanks for any advice and suggestions!
Regards,
nry
