core 151. After reboot, IPF GUI/Status/web proxy/STOPPED** status.
/var/log/squid/cache.log results= FATAL: The redirector helpers are crashing too rapidly, need help!
Have to manually execute exec /usr/sbin/squid. Service starts but no caching occurs.
Below is screenshot of the web proxy config.
Anyone have suggestion? Cli-commands?
EDIT: Updated markdown for screenshot by Moderator.
Just try to disable āURLFilterā andā Update Acceleratorā ( the redirector helpers ) and enable them one by one.
When does the error return( squid only/squid+URLFilter/squid+UpdateAccel/squid+both redirectors)?
Try to change some settings in the āNetwork ā Web Proxyā:
Memory cache size (MB): 10
Harddisk cache size (MB): 1024
then press the āsave and restartā button.
Saving these ( arbitrary ) parameters restore possibly damaged files.
So āpress the āsave and restartā buttonā may be a remedy.
Interesting to get a reply. Thank you. However, its still persistent issue. Since I do not reboot FW unless new update occurs, I only perform the cli command exec /usr/sbin/squid after reboot. I of course tried Nov 20 suggestion and YY suggestion. Still a no go.
Additionally, now I when I click " [Activate cachemanager:], all i see is menu screenā¦with 5-hidden links.
Clicking " [Cache Manager Interface] generates this error:
Internal Error: Missing Template MGR_INDEX
BTW, squid command within IPF shows this===> # squid
2021/10/01 13:34:23| WARNING: BCP 177 violation. Detected non-functional IPv6 loopback.
Can anyone suggest some cli commands?
NOTE: To be clear, since every update from Nov 2020, web proxy does not autostart. I have to manually autostart.
At all times, I do the cli version of pakfire to update/upgrade.
FWIW, my FW device has 64GB msata and 8G Ram

If squid doesnāt start, there should be errors in /var/log/messages, /var/log/squid/*.log.
BTW: A quick search in Bugzilla didnāt show this issue.
Either it is solved by saving the config from the WebGUI ( repairing damaged files ), or most of this spurious errors are eliminated by the actual Core Update.
I may be wrong. But then the developer group needs more informations. As the error couldnāt be reproduced in average systems.
You donāt have to worry about this message as per the following post

I also tried Clear Squid Proxy Cache And Re-create the Cache Directories.==>.interestingly squid.conf had cache_dir aufs /var/log/cacheā¦<==is this the correct path? the access/cache/user logs point to==>/var/log/squid/
BTW, /etc/init.d/squid status generates NO resultsā¦unlike other:
i.e /etc/init.d/unbound status
unbound is running with Process ID(s) 1588.
Also I do not get this response either:
Therefore, do I attempt to do a full re-install of 159?
EDIT: Quote reapplied by mod.
Was the response using the same email account? Or is there an alias involved?
If the IPFire Community sent a message to your email Account A, and you responded from your email Account B, I believe youāll see an error.
Likewise there may be an error with an alias. (this one may be fixed. But I havenāt tried it in years)
of courseā¦I selected the reply to list option.
BTW, reinstalled 159 from scratchā¦now cache manager does not want to functionā¦Solution anyone???
Server reboots fine NOW with squid working correctly as well as giving me RESPONSES in cli modeā¦
Its very unusualā¦what is transpiringā¦ started with ipcop 16 yrs agoā¦ and now thisā¦
Does not matter which cache server i useā¦same response: "Internal Error: Missing Template MGR_INDEX"
BUT, cacheā¦DOES this error signify āsquidā issues ongoing?
NOW, Of course proxy log viewer no longer shows any data
NOTE: THIS IS A FRESH NEW BUILD
note: also chnaged proxy port to a new, other than default. cache mgr shows still same error.
When you get this screen occurring, go to the command line and see what you see in
/var/log/httpd/error_log
The lines near then end of that file should be related to the message. There usually is a bit more info available together with the line number that had the problem and the filename involved.
per your request : note: this is a FRESH install; Perm. is 755 for "above"path

Is there a manual way to start cgi daemon?
In that directory are all the cgi programs that run the pages for IPFire. In addition web programs that come with some of the installed programs, like the web proxy squid, are also stored there. cachemgr.cgi is one of those programs that is part of the squid package.
From searching it seems that the MGR_INDEX is also related to a squid program.
Could you check if cachemgr.cgi is present in /srv/web/ipfire/cgi-bin If it is not then something has gone wrong during your fresh install. If it is present there does it have the same ownership and permissions as all the other cgi files in that directory?
yesā¦they are all 755
Then I am running out of ideas what might be causing it. I have never seen anything like you are experiencing in any of my updates or in any fresh installs on my vm testbed.
Maybe you should try raising it as a bug.

ANYONE-SOLUTIONS/SUGGESTIONS/IDEAS
Please donāt shout. It is not polite.
On the Status - Services WUI page does the Web Proxy show as RUNNING in green or STOPPED in red. If it is stopped what happens if you click on the Save and Restart button at the bottom of the Web Proxy WUI page? Does it now start or does it stay stopped?
My Web Proxy shows as running and when I click the Activate cachemanager: link in the Web Proxy WUI page I get the Cache Manager Interface page from the squid cachemgr.cgi file.
What do you have in your /var/ipfire/proxy/cachemgr.conf file
You should have
192.168.1.6:800
localhost
based on the values in your earlier posts.
The cachemgr.cgi file permissions/ownership should be
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 84K Aug 9 12:01 /srv/web/ipfire/cgi-bin/cachemgr.cgi
The md5sum of this file should be
7afba0da774a2594abb99fce6cbf016e /srv/web/ipfire/cgi-bin/cachemgr.cgi
