[squid-users] How to build Squid 6

[Henning Svane]

Hi Alex

I have now followed the instruction below.
All compiling and building was done without problems.

When I run
sudo systemctl status squid
I get this message
Unit squid.service could not be found.
And /usr/sbin/squid do not exist

What do I miss?

I can see that the directory /etc/squid is not create I guess I have to make it myself, correct?
Can I used the old files from the old 5.2 installation?

Regards
Henning

PS Here is the steps I used

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt install build-essential       # to install C++
sudo sed --in-place -E 's/# (deb-src.*updates main)/  \1/g' \ /etc/apt/sources.list sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get build-dep squid sudo apt-get install linuxdoc-tools sudo apt-get upgrade wget http://www.squid-cache.org/Versions/v6/squid-6.1.tar.gz
tar -xzvf squid-6.1.tar.gz
cd squid-6.1
./configure --with-openssl
make -j2
sudo make install

To build Squid v6 on Ubuntu from a source tarball with many optional features enabled, consider using the same commands that Squid CI tests are using:

     # deb-src sources are required for "apt-get build-dep" below,
     # but you may find a better way to enable them in
     # /etc/apt/sources.list, or you may already have them enabled
     sudo sed --in-place -E 's/# (deb-src.*updates main)/  \1/g' \
         /etc/apt/sources.list
     sudo apt-get update

     # install various prerequisites and optional dependencies
     sudo apt-get build-dep squid
     sudo apt-get install linuxdoc-tools

     # download and unpack Squid sources; if you want a more secure
     # option, use the official git repository instead; our CI commands
     # use the git repository, not wget
     wget http://www.squid-cache.org/Versions/v6/squid-6.1.tar.gz
     tar -vzf squid-6.1.tar.gz

     cd squid-6.1

     # this step is not necessary when using bootstrapped sources
     # as shown by the wget command above; this step is necessary
     # if you get Squid sources from git
     ./bootstrap.sh

     # you do not have to specify --with-openssl but if you need
     # SslBump features, you should specify it (IMHO);
     # see ./configure --help for many other options
     ./configure --with-openssl

     # if you have n CPU cores available, then use "make -jn" or
     # some such to speed the build up
     make

     # this will install Squid into default directories unless
     # you customize that during the ./configure step above
     sudo make install


HTH,

Alex.
