Hi,
Following is error in /var/log/messages file

Nov 26 20:11:22 xyz squid[20230]: Squid Parent: child
process 20574 started
Nov 26 20:11:28 xyz (squid): Cannot open
'/usr/local/squid/var/logs/access.log' for writing. ^IThe parent directory
must be writeable by the ^Iuser 'adssquid', which is the
cache_effective_user ^Iset in squid.conf.

By mistake I deleted /var/log/squid/access.log file.
Then recreated it in same directory and changed mode
of directory as required to by command "chmod 770 /var/log/squid/"

I do not know how come it is asking for access.log
file in directory '/usr/local/squid/var/logs/'.
There no such directory.

Follwoing are cache log messages.
