Re: [squid-users] My problem with Squid

Upgrade.

The problem is indirectly caused by Solaris, which cannot reliably
handle processes using more than 256 filedescriptors. This causes
problems for Squid during log rotation and/or reconfigure if done while
the proxy is being used.

Later Squid version has a workaround to deal with this oddness of
Solaris.
