Would you mind posting your squidGuard.conf file? That would help us
identify the problem. (Feel free to "dummy-up" any private
information.)

Just thought I'd mention that the documentation only asks for 740
here.

Please consider posting your conf file.

Good point. In fact I now find out that squidGuard was working
without
actually having any db files at all. Yesterday as I installed I
noticed
that there weren't any *.db files but thought that this was a
feature
of 1.20 and BerkeleyDB 3.2.9 seeing as it worked.

However, this morning I noticed that squidGuard.log showed no
activity
around bin/squidGuard -u and working on a suggestion from someone
else
I did
# bin/squidGuard -C all
This created all the *.db files but with access denied. Doing
#chown -R squid:squid squidGuard/db/
#chmod -R 660 squidGuard/db/
#squid -k reconfigure
got me into emergency mode because of access problems.
#chmod -R 770 squidGuard/db/
#squid -k reconfigure
got me running properly. Now I thought I'd retry doing
#bin/squidGuard -u
This time squidGuard.log complained that
squidGuard/db/porn/domains.diff didn't exist (even though it did
with
correct permissions) and just hung; when I did Ctrl-C to get the
prompt
back it went into emergency mode.
#squid -k reconfigure
got squidGuard restarted properly but still no update.

Any advice would be much appreciated. As you can imagine it's all a
bit
frustrating. But, on the positive side, squidGuard is proving to be
good and robust and is not getting stuck in emergency mode.

Thanks,
Nigel
