Hello,
I am just starting to learn about squid, and hope to be able to use it as an http accelerator. I've read up on the basic concept of squid, as well as a guide to setting the squid.conf file. My future squid box is running Fedora Core 1, and to install squid, I ran: up2date squid which installed squid-2.5.STABLE3-2 So, I went through the conf file and set it up as well as I could in order to use it in http-accel mode. But, I can't get it to start up, and it looks like the install of squid is wanky . When I run: /etc/init.d/squid start I get:
init_cache_dir /var/spool/squid... /etc/init.d/squid: line 162: 13047 Aborted $SQUID -z -F -D 2>/dev/null
Starting squid: /etc/init.d/squid: line 162: 13048 Aborted $SQUID $SQUID_OPTS 2>/dev/null
[FAILED]
when i run: /etc/init.d/squid status, I get:
squid is stopped FATAL: getgrnam failed to find groupid for effective group 'squid' Squid Cache (Version 2.5.STABLE3): Terminated abnormally. CPU Usage: 0.010 seconds = 0.010 user + 0.000 sys Maximum Resident Size: 0 KB Page faults with physical i/o: 393 /etc/init.d/squid: line 162: 13068 Aborted $SQUID -k check
I also tried to set the squid.conf file back to its default settings, but I get the same error
when trying to run the startup script.
Is there a known problem with the Fedora Core 1 squid? Is the startup script broken?
Regards, Devin
