Hello,
I'm trying to get squid up and running under a CHROOT (which by the way the instructions on wiki appear to point to a lot of directories that are different if you compile and install with out changing anything)

Prior to attempting the CHROOT I had Squid running fine, however there appears to be some issues now that I'm running under chroot.

Here is my log file

I see three errors.

Number 1
2015/05/01 20:33:21| ipcCreate: /usr/local/squid/libexec/pinger: (2) No such file or directory

Number 2
2015/05/01 20:33:21| ipcCreate: /usr/local/squid/libexec/log_file_daemon: (2) No such file or directory

Number 3
2015/05/02 00:33:22| logfileHandleWrite: daemon:/usr/local/squid/var/logs/access.log: error writing ((32) Broken pipe)


Not knowing much about the inter workings of squid, and what not, but I'm guessing that Number 3 will be resolved when Number 2 is resolved. And Number 1 and 2 are closely related.

The issue is I'm at a stand still have to proceed with fixing Number 1 and 2.
my chroot directive is

chroot /srv/squid

and I've copied all of the /usr/local/squid/libexec/ to /srv/squid/usr/local/squid/libexec

So i believe I have it in the right place. And the file permissions appear to be the same within the CHROOT as they are in the normal directories.

Any Ideas?

Chroot into the jail and run 'pinger' it should complain about any libs it can't find.

Your saying the issue isn't with Squid not finding "pinger" but pinger cant find something it needs in the jail?

Likewise with the log_file_daemon?

Thanks for your help. It will be a few days before I get to take a look at it, but thanks for giving me a direction.

Yes! When I jailed squid in the past I ran into this issue. running the commands that were broken gave me a hint into what was missing from the jail.

Okay, thank you so much I made a huge amount of progress. Though I'm still running into one error, that I can't seem to resolve.

logfileHandleWrite: daemon:/usr/local/squid/var/logs/access.log: error writing ((32) Broken pipe)

N/M I'm an idiot. adding /dev/null,
solved the remaining problems.
