See cache.log. > can someone help me with a step by step > process on creating the new location and enable squid > to write to it. 1. Create the new directory. 2. Make sure your cache_effective_user have write permission to this new directory. 3. Change Squid log file paths to use the new directory and restart Squid. If problems, look for cache.log. If suspecting problems writing to cache.log, start Squid manually including the -N command line flag. This will prevent Squid from going into the background and allows catstrophic errors to be printed in the terminal window from where you started Squid. You should also be able to find these errors in your systems messages syslog file. Regards Henrik
