Re: squid 1.1.21 dies with signal 6 every hour

To me it looks like it is dying every hour (same second each hour).

I strongly suspects that you have something running from crontab that
makes Squid die.

Signal 6 is SIGABORT, and this indicates that Squid detected a fatal
error and exited. Check your cache.log for information on what error
Squid detected.
