[squid-users] FATAL: Ipc::Mem::Segment::create failed to shm_open(/squid-cf__metadata.shm): (13) Permission denied

[amadaan]

So I actually dig deeper into this issue and found stack traced error of 
squid: ERROR: Could not read pid file
	/var/run/squid.pid: (13) Permission denied

Tried one of the responses from one of the forums. Saying the issue is with
SELinux being enabled.
I disabled that and it worked fine after that. 

But that means I am removing security from my system. Now this awesome blog
tells me how to add policy rules to allow your new software to run when
SELinux is enabled.

Quite helpful but not sure if that is real solution. Can any changes be done
on squid end to ignore above steps . Any suggestions on this will be of
help.

Thanks
