[squid-users] Bug: 'squid -k interrupt' quits on config file error, fails to kill process

[Dave Blanchard]

If one has edited the config file and there is some kind of error in the new config, 'squid -k interrupt' fails to kill Squid, but instead complains about the broken config and exits. I think the correct behavior should be for Squid to kill the running process regardless, then report a config error, if necessary. Ideally the config would only be carefully scrutinized when starting Squid, not when killing it.
