<br>
We use child Squid proxies that connect to boxes that act as
parents.<br>
In version 4.x this configuration does not pose any problem.<br>
In version 5.2, since, we have a lot of errors like :<br>
<br>
01h 47mn kid1| TCP connection to 10.32.0.18/3150 failed<br>
01h 47mn kid1| TCP connection to 10.32.0.17/3150 failed<br>
01h 47mn kid1| TCP connection to 10.32.0.17/3150 failed<br>
01h 47mn kid1| TCP connection to 10.32.0.17/3150 failed<br>
01h 47mn kid1| TCP connection to 10.32.0.17/3150 failed<br>
01h 47mn kid1| TCP connection to 10.32.0.17/3150 failed<br>
01h 47mn kid1| TCP connection to 10.32.0.17/3150 failed<br>
<br>
However we are sure that the parent proxies are available.<br>
To make sure this is the case, we installed a local HaProxy that
scales with the parent proxies<br>
<br>
The Squid uses the loopback as a parent.<br>
<br>
The same problem occurs:<br>
06:19:47 kid1| TCP connection to 127.0.0.1/2320 failed<br>
06:15:13 kid1| TCP connection to 127.0.0.1/2320 failed<br>
06:14:41 kid1| TCP connection to 127.0.0.1/2320 failed<br>
06:14:38 kid1| TCP connection to 127.0.0.1/2320 failed<br>
06:13:15 kid1| TCP connection to 127.0.0.1/2320 failed<br>
06:11:23 kid1| TCP connection to 127.0.0.1/2320 failed<br>
<br>
But in no case the local HaProxy service was down <br>
<br>
This makes us understand that the parent squid process randomly
stalls when in fact there is no reason for this to happen.<br>
There is a software problem rather than a network problem<br>
<br>
It is possible that the configuration is wrong but we have tried
many possibilities.<br>
<br>
Here is our last configuration<br>
<br>
cache_peer 127.0.0.1 parent 2320 0 name=Peer11 no-query default
connect-timeout=3 connect-fail-limit=5 no-tproxy <br>
<br>
maybe we forgot something?<br>
<br>
Regards<br>
