Public bug reported: Hi,
I switch to Ubuntu 13.10 to enjoy a version of Squid more recent than 3.1. (it's 3.3 in 13.10) My currrent version is 3.3.8-1ubuntu3 One of the reasons for switching was support for SMP (Squid3 running multiple instances of itself in a native way). However, even if you put "workers 8" (for example) in /etc/squid3/squid.conf, this option is not enable because Squid3 is always started with the "-N" option ("no daemon" mode), which is incompatible with the "workers" option. See http://www.squid-cache.org/Doc/config/workers/ for details. One option is to remove the "-N" option in /etc/init/squid3. This option could be put in /etc/default/squid3 for people who really want it. However, this is just a quick and dirty work-around, as after this change, stopping the service with "service squid3 stop" no longer works. You have to manually kill the "squid-coord-X" process. Therefore, extra rework is needed in /etc/init/squid3. That's all I have for the moment. Better workarounds and solutions are welcome! I'll post more if I have any. Cheers, Michael. ** Affects: squid3 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to squid3 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1235681 Title: squid3 always run with -N option, incompatible with SMP option (workers) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/squid3/+bug/1235681/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
