errorTryLoadText (permissions)

Hi,

I have downloaded Squid 2.1.PATCH2, configured, compiled, installed. I'm
on Solaris 2.7.

From squid.conf:
cache_effective_user squid
cache_effective_group squid

from passwd file:
squid:x:16:16:Squid admin:/usr/local/src/www/squid/:

from /etc/group file:
squid:*:16:root,squid,jan

the whole structure /usr/local/src/www/squid is owned by squid.squid, the
rights are "drwxr-xr-x" (755), except for logs directory (and
/a/squid/cache for the swap files), where they are "drwxrwxr-x" (775).

When I start squid (squid -z) for the very first time, it has no problems,
it creates the swap directories in /a/squid/cache/. When I start it again
(squid), I get these strange messages:

(it worked in a similar way even when I used nobody.nogroup ownership)

Anybody any ideas? What am I doing wrong?

Thanks,
