Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: squid
Any method of restarting squid fails to restart it. Such as:
============
u...@scrap:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/squid restart
[sudo] password for user:
Rather than invoking init scripts through /etc/init.d, use the service(8)
utility, e.g. service squid restart
Since the script you are attempting to invoke has been converted to an
Upstart job, you may also use the restart(8) utility, e.g. restart squid
restart: Job failed to restart
=============
u...@scrap:~$ sudo service squid restart
[sudo] password for user:
restart: Job failed to restart
===========
u...@scrap:~$ sudo restart squid
restart: Job failed to restart
==========
After a while, a "start" using any of these methods works fine.
I'm assuming the root problem is that squid takes considerable time to
shut down; in the previous init system, "/etc/init.d/squid stop" would not
return until squid had exited. The new behavior of returning immediately is
quite desirable in the effort to speed suspend and shutdown times, but I think
"restart" is still just implemented by "stop" immediately followed by a
"start". If the current "stop" behavior is retained, I would guess "restart",
instead of being "stop" then "start", will have to have a check for pid exit
placed into it. squid shutdowns are on the order of 10s of seconds so if this
involves polling I would check every second at the most.
Find attached my squid.conf, in case there's some configuration
workaround...
