[squid-users] Re: How to ignore query terms for store key?

Thanks, storeurl_rewrite in Squid 2.7 looks like the right solution.

But when I try to use it to strip query, Squid does not respond:

/usr/local/squid/etc/squid.conf
    storeurl_access allow all # just for the test, will narrow down later
    storeurl_rewrite_program /usr/local/squid/bin/strip-query.pl

/usr/local/squid/bin/strip-query.pl
    #!/usr/local/bin/perl -Tw
    $| = 1; while(<>) { chomp; s/\?\S*//; print; } ### my strip query test

$ /usr/local/squid/sbin/squid -k reconfigure -f /usr/local/squid/etc/squid.conf
    ...2010/08/09 15:07:10| helperOpenServers: Starting 5
'strip-query.pl' processes...

$ wget ... '<origin_url>'
    ...Proxy request sent, awaiting response... ### gets stuck

(Without storeurl_rewrite wget works OK)

What am I missing?
