That wiki page Marcus references you to documents it in detail.

  One of the result codes:

    OK - Success. A new URL is presented.

    ERR - Success. No action for this URL.

    BH - Failure. The helper encountered a problem.

  {i} the result field is only accepted by Squid-3.4 and newer.
"

In other words, SG is working and telling Squid/you not to do anything
with the URL you gave it.

If you have rules setup that should be making it an OK with URL output
its probably because of ... the URL given to SG is not valid (missing
path), also the FQDN, myip=, and myport= fields are missing.
