Dear all,


When i start my squid service it works fine for 2 to 3 minutes after that it fails automatically.


When i try the following command it gives me following error message.

[root@localhost squid]# service squid status

squid dead but pid file exists
squid: ERROR: Could not send signal 0 to process 3837: (3) No such process



I tried several steps like

Rebooting my machine,cleaning squid cache from /var/spool/squid,squid -z


Below is the logs of my squid.out file

Hi,

You can start squid from command line in debug mode and see what happens:
In the meantime correct the above configuration error. You have an ACL named example, pointing to a non existing file (/home/user)
