The code is as follows:

# cache_dir ufs / var/spool/squid 100 16 256

Step 2: clear the squid proxy cache

# squid-k shutdown / / disable the squid service

# rm-rf / var/spool/squid/ Delete the cache directory

Rebuild cache directory

The code is as follows:

# squid-z

Starting squid: [OK]

Step 3: confirm that Squid is running

The code is as follows:

# netstat-tulpn | grep: 3128 / / check whether port 3128 used by squid is in use

You can also check the access.log or cache.log of squid to check whether squid is running properly, as follows:

The code is as follows:

# tail-f / var/log/squid/access.log

# tail-f / var/log/squid/cache.log
