Re: Trouble configuring squidguard

[John J. Yatsko, Jr.]

Squidguard reports "domainlist empty, removed from memory" Squidguard 1.20 requires version 3.29 of the Berkely db. It won't work with version 2.27, nor will it work with 4.0. The assertion that configure makes about requiring 3.2.* or later is not really correct.  SquidGuard needs 3.2.x ( not sure which version is too low) and we know  specifically that it works quite nicely with 3.2.9.  I have tried it with 3.3.x and it craps out every time.  Same with 2.7.7. (Thanks to Robert Nickel for these specifics). (It has been reported that squidguard 1.20 will work with other versions of the db if you are using plain text files for your blacklists; in other words, if there are no *.db files in your blacklist directories. This can really slow down the startup time of squid/squidguard, but otherwise may not be harmful.) http://www.maynidea.com/squidguard/faq-plus.html   John Yatsko, Jr. Technology Assistant Erie County Public Library 160 East Front St Erie PA 16507 (814) 451-7307 ----- Original Message ----- From: Chris Hills To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, April 29, 2002 8:04 AM Subject: Trouble configuring squidguard Greetings all, apologies if this has been answered before. I have tried searching usenet and the mailing list archives but I could not find a solution.   I have configured and installed squidguard 1.2.0 with Berkely DB 2.7.7 (08/20/99). It is installed as /usr/local/bin/squidGuard, and the configuration file is /etc/squid/squidguard.conf. The blacklists are located in /usr/blacklists.   When running the command   `echo "http://www.porn.com/ - - GET" | /usr/local/bin/squidGuard -c /etc/squid/squidguard.conf -d`   the following output is produced:   2002-04-29 14:14:52 [1113] init domainlist /usr/blacklists/porn/domains 2002-04-29 14:14:52 [1113] loading dbfile /usr/blacklists/porn/domains.db 2002-04-29 14:14:52 [1113] domainlist
