[squid-users] RE: FATAL: Ipc::Mem::Segment::create failed to shm_open(/squid-squid-page-pool.shm): (13) Permission denied

I think this fixed my issue.

Just add the following line to your /etc/fstab file:
shm /dev/shm tmpfs nodev,nosuid,noexec 0 0
After that use (as root):
# mount shm

I just added "workers 4" to my working configuration and I get an shm_open error. I assume it is trying to write to the root directory "/squid-squid-page-pool.shm" as the user squid which will fail.

How do I redirect this?

Thanks Mike
