How to run squid under chroot environment ?

I am trying to use the chroot keyword in the configuration file
/etc/squid/squid.conf .

But while retsrting the service, it fails to start. The log file gives the following message.

"
FATAL: Bungled squid.conf line 3292: chroot
Squid Cache (Version 2.5.STABLE9): Terminated abnormally.
FATAL: Bungled squid.conf line 3291: chroot
Squid Cache (Version 2.5.STABLE9): Terminated abnormally.
FATAL: Bungled squid.conf line 3291: chroot
Squid Cache (Version 2.5.STABLE9): Terminated abnormally.
FATAL: Bungled squid.conf line 3291: chroot
Squid Cache (Version 2.5.STABLE9): Terminated abnormally.
FATAL: Bungled squid.conf line 3291: chroot
Squid Cache (Version 2.5.STABLE9): Terminated abnormally.
"

Also can i disable the version information of squid.

this would indicate a syntax error on lines 3291 and 3292 of your squid.conf...

what do those lines look like??

IIRC, with a line like:

[QUOTE=win32sux]this would indicate a syntax error on lines 3291 and 3292 of your squid.conf...

what do those lines look like??

IIRC, with a line like:[code]httpd_suppress_version_string on


I searched for the string in /etc/squid/squid.conf , but no such string is there . So , I put the line myself at the end of
/etc/squid/squid.conf . But it throws the following error.

"
Stopping squid: 2007/04/30 10:13:49| parseConfigFile: line 3466 unrecognized: 'httpd_suppress_version_string on'.
[ OK ]
Starting squid: . [ OK ]

"
And it also displaying the squid version if i execute

squid -v


I am using squid2.5 .

this would indicate a syntax error on lines 3291 and 3292 of your squid.conf...

what do those lines look like??

I have just entered

chroot
at line 3291 so that squid runs in chrooted environment.
