[squid-users] Permission denied on /usr/share/squid/errors/templates and /usr/share/squid/icons/silk

[Ota Coder]

Hi!

I'm on Slackware 14.2 and installed Squid version 3.5.26 but I'm having
this problem everytime I ran in the terminal:

# squid -z
# squid -N -D -d1

and check the /var/log/squid/cache.log

Most of the errors shown is "(13) Permission denied" on the files at
folders /usr/share/squid/errors/templates/ and usr/share/squid/icons/silk/

Here's an excerpt:

Here is the complete output in the cache.log - http://termbin.com/apfa

I typed in lsattr -R on /usr/share/squid and this is the result -
http://termbin.com/k37c

I checked the permissions and owner at /usr/share/squid/errors/templates/
and it is correct - http://termbin.com/jo0e

The cache_effective_user in /etc/squid/squid.conf is "squid" and the
cache_effective_group is "squid"

I mostly followed the settings written in this post -
https://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/blog/arniekat-436077/slackware-14-1-squid-3-4-7-36215/

But yeah, when I ran:

# squid -N -D -d1

squid really doesn't start when I checked when I ran:

# netstat -ltup

port 3128 doesn't show and squid is not in the output

Any help in fixing this soon is very much appreciated.

Thank you in advance.
