This purged the object. If it's not in the cache then 404 is returned.

Also I would recommend upgrading your Squid. 2.4.STABLE7 is quite old with
several security issues...

It's always an "X-Cache: MISS" as PURGE requests as such is not cached.

Syntax error there..

and is why Squid responded with this:

> HTTP/1.0 400 Bad Request

What you meant to use was:

client -v -m PURGE http://www.squid-cache.org/
