RE: [squid-users] squid 2.6 and squidguard 1.2.0 problems

Dear Mr.Henrik Nordstrom,

For the cache_effective_user, I read about that in the squid mailing list.
Could you please elaborate more about this part? I think I almost try
everything but not this part yet.

Is it means that I need to insert these 2 lines in the squid.conf?

cache_effective_user squid
cache_effective_group squid

Thanks again.

Usually this is caused by permission problems where your
cache_effective_user do not have access to all the files needed by
SquidGuard.

When SquidGuard encounters a filesystem permission problem it enters
silent passthru mode, allowing anything.

Is there any relevant messages in cache.log?

Also try testing SquidGuard manually from the command line running as
your cache_effective_user (not root).

Henrik
