Never mind: duh. I forgot to turn squid back on (I had it off because it was so slow.)
The client command gives an HTML page with an error on it. ************************** <HTML><HEAD> <TITLE>ERROR: The requested URL could not be retrieved</TITLE> </HEAD><BODY> <H1>ERROR</H1> <H2>The requested URL could not be retrieved</H2> <HR> <P> While trying to retrieve the URL: <A HREF="3328">3328</A> <P> The following error was encountered: <UL> <LI> <STRONG> Invalid URL </STRONG> </UL> <P> Some aspect of the requested URL is incorrect.

I have two problems. 1. Yes I have Apache set up on my server. But I cannot find the cachemgr.cgi file that the FAQ # 9 mentions. I used the Linux find command, but all it does is print out a list of all my directories. The locations that the FAQ says the cachemgr.cgi file might be, don't exist on my machine. 2. I tried to do as you suggested and used the client command. My squid.conf is already set up as you said. [EMAIL PROTECTED] squid]# squidclient bash: squidclient: command not found [EMAIL PROTECTED] squid]# client cache_object://localhost/info client: ERROR: Cannot connect to localhost:3128: Connection refused [EMAIL PROTECTED] squid]# client cache_object://localhost:3328/info client: ERROR: Cannot connect to localhost:3128: Connection refused (note that the port squid is listening on is NOT 3128. but 3328) I have Mandrake Multi-Network-Firewall. Linux kernel 2.4.18-8, where might the cachemgr.cgi file be? Thanks. -----Original Message----- From: Andreas Pettersson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, April 20, 2004 3:04 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [squid-users] slow squid; FAQ question Cache Manager is a web interface to access a huge amount of stastistics out of squid.
