SquidGuard configuration

[Brunoz]

Hi
I work on the principle of url filtering through my internship, I use squid as proxy cache and squidGard, after downloading the blacklist and when I type the following command

"squidGuard-C all"

I found the file squidGuard.log code which described the following error

2009-12-18 [2355] destblock good missing active content, set inactive
2009-12-18 [2355] destblock local missing active content, set inactive
2009-12-18 [2355] init domainlist / var / squidGuard / blacklists / blacklists / porn / domains
2009-12-18 [2355] loading dbfile / var / squidGuard / blacklists / blacklists / porn / domains.db
2009-12-18 [2355] db_open Error: Permission denied
2009-12-18 [2355] Going into emergency mode

Can any one help me with this issue. Any help will be appreciated.

I think you can change the owner for squid to solve this problem. Just issue the following command in the terminal as a root user.

chown -R squid

Ot alternatively you can change the user that is sunning the squid, I have not tried this option but this should work without any problem.

I did as you said with the USER 'proxy'. When I try to make a home for squid it works fine and when I issue the command

'ps aux | grep squid'

I found that the root is the same. Any advice on this, or solution for this.

Hi

'ps aux | grep squid'

I have no idea about this and I even do not know which linux distribution you are using. If you are using mandriva linux distribution then you can use the following to get the same results.

service squid restart

Hope this may help you. Any more queries then do post back.

I uses the platform fedora 11. I did tried mandriva for some period but I was not comfortable with the system, so i changed to fedora 11. Is that on fedora the squid does not boot? I only know how to assign the use proxy a squid.

No, actually I did not come out my crystal ball to know what distro you use.

Well looking fedora command to restart a service, then just visit their official site and you will find it. Best of luck.
