Re: [squid-users] Cannot run '/usr/lib/squid3/squid_session' process

i dont know this external acl but i would try to first run it from
command line with all the parameters.
"/usr/lib/squid3/squid_session -t 60 -b /usr/share/squid3/session.db"

you should get the feeling of it running or not.
it's ubuntu so try sudo and also su - proxy "command..."
so you would get the feeling of root permissions and the proxy user that
runs the command for squid.
also make sure that all the tree of directories "/usr/lib/squid3/" has
permissions that allows the proxy user access to them.
maybe the specific file has the right ones but the tree dirs dont.
