httpd_accel has been obsolete for more than 3 years now.
Where did you get that config? I know it does not come with the packaged
squid/squid3 on any current Ubuntu.

Considering that you have on apparently brand new installs encountered two
sets of issues with long obsolete config options. I'm going to have to say
please post your Ubundu version, squid version, and whole squid.conf
