[squid-users] Squid with SquidGuard

Hello chaps,

I know that this is a Squid mailing list and not the SquidGuard list - by I have exhausted the help of the good folks on the SquidGuard list...

I actually have Squid up and running and am very happy with it :)
however, I *do* want to use squidGuard with it too.

Squid runs on a FC4 machine dealing with the proxy requests of my small home network.

I have tried installing squidGuard from RPM, Yum, and by installing from source. All fail to work with squid.

I have tried squidGuard with the simplest of SquidGuard.conf files :

logdir /var/log/squidguard
acl {
    default {
        pass all
    }
}

and the command:
# /usr/bin/squidGuard -d
2006-01-07 23:54:38 [28284] squidGuard 1.2.0 started (1136678078.397)
2006-01-07 23:54:38 [28284] squidGuard ready for requests (1136678078.400)

seems to show that squidGuard is happy...

However, as soon as I put the line:
redirect_program /usr/bin/squidGuard -c /etc/squid/squidGuard.conf
into squid.conf everything goes wrong.

In /var/log/squid/cache.log I find the following:
2006/01/07 23:51:03| helperOpenServers: Starting 5 'squidGuard' processes
2006/01/07 23:51:03| WARNING: Cannot run '/usr/bin/squidGuard' process.
2006/01/07 23:51:03| WARNING: Cannot run '/usr/bin/squidGuard' process.

2006/01/07 23:51:03| WARNING: Cannot run '/usr/bin/squidGuard' process.

No matter what I do I cannot seem to get SquidGuard to start from within
Squid.

What am I doing wrong?

Can I get any more detailed output as to *exactly* why Squid can't run squidGuard?

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance

Mark
