Re: [squid-users] Squid wont start on slackware

Thanks for your inputs , Sirs.

I have added user 'squid' and group 'squid'. Changed the ownership of

/usr/local/squid

to user 'squid' and group 'squid'

I have changed cache_effective_user as:

cache_effective_user squid

cache_effective_group squid

I have also created 'store.log' and 'access.log' files in

'/usr/local/squid/var/logs'

and ownership is set to user 'squid' and group 'squid'

'Squid' has all the permissions (read, write, execute) on directory

'/usr/local/squid'

Still it doesn not start nor it gives any error.

/usr/local/squid/sbin/squid -k parse does not report any error.

Regards
