[squid-users] After upgrade from 5.7 to 5.9 the whitelists were not listed , we had to readd them.

Our whitelists are separate files. The files were still in the /etc/squid directory, but the configs were gone.
We actually go old school and use webmin to manage the squid server and it showed an upgrade.
I am thinking the squid.conf got overwritten, which caused our issue.

What do you use to upgrade/install Squid? Do you build Squid from sources and then run "make install"? Or do you use some packaging software provided by a third party?

Do you put your access rules (a.k.a. whitelists) into squid.conf? Was you squid.conf overwritten? With some default configuration??


FWIW, native Squid "make install" does not install or update squid.conf file AFAICT. It installs squid.cond.documented and squid.conf.default.


HTH,

Alex.
