Well it would help if you mentioned what you had already tried or
checked. I'm sure a real squid expert will follow up, but if it were
me, I would troubleshoot the "no such file or directory" message.
First "egrep ^cache_dir squid.conf" and make sure that the caches you
have defined in squid.conf actually exist/are mounted and that their
permissions match whatever owner and group you set via
cache_effective_user and cache_effective_group (also in squid.conf).
Also check existance and perms for your log directory (search
squid.conf for cache.log and access.log and the path [if any] that
you've set) all those files and probably the directory itself should
be owned by or at least writable by the squid process (owner:group).

And if none of that is it then, as Tony posted, look at your cache.log
and post the relevant lines.

hth,

Adam
