[squid-users] SQUID refuses to listen on any TCP Port

Hello,
It could be that squid doesn't like some of my packages(I'm not sure 
which one). I installed the following packages:
   strongswan,nrpe, nagios-plugins

I also tweaked some kernel settings
net.ipv4.ip_forward = 1
net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range = 10000 61000
net.ipv4.tcp_max_syn_backlog = 8192
net.ipv4.tcp_tw_reuse = 1
net.ipv4.tcp_max_tw_buckets = 5000
fs.file-max = 65536
net.core.rmem_max = 67108864
net.core.wmem_max = 67108864
net.ipv4.tcp_rmem = 4096 87380 67108864
net.ipv4.tcp_wmem = 4096 65536 67108864
net.core.netdev_max_backlog = 250000
net.ipv4.tcp_mtu_probing = 1
net.core.default_qdisc = fq
net.ipv4.tcp_congestion_control = bbr

I couldn't win her heart back even if I rolled back all these settings 
and removed the packages.

I'm willing to pay if someone can help me resolve this issue

Thank you!
