Subject: [squid-users] squid -k reconfigure error: (1) Operation not
permitted

Hello,

We are using 2.5.STABLE12 version.
As nobody is accessing Internet I just simply executed squid -k reconfigure
and I got:

root@fenix:~# squid -k reconfigure
squid: ERROR: Could not send signal 1 to process 1033: (1) Operation not
permitted

Hello Jaime,

Check your cache_effective_user directive in squid.conf and check which user
id your Squid process is running under.

If you start Squid as root, it will change its effective/real UID/GID to the
user specified below. The default is to change to UID to nobody. If you
define cache_effective_user, but not cache_effective_group, Squid sets the
GID to the effective user's default group ID (taken from the password file)
and supplementary group list from the from groups membership of
cache_effective_user.

Thanks,
