[squid-users] Possible squid problem?

When I try to access this URL (a login for an EZProxy rewriting proxy
server)

http://mimas.calstatela.edu:2048/login?url=http://search.eb.com

I get a Squid error message (below) When I set my browser to bypass Squid,
I get the page requested.

Does this represent a Squid problem?

I note that Squid chops off the end of the URL, don't know if that means
anything.
