Hello, Today i noticed that my cache directory has lost some of its directorys somehow. Below is whats been appearing in my syslogs and when i check to see if those directorys exist in my cache they are not there. I've recreated a couple of them and set them to the right ownerships/permissions etc then squid starts writing to them again. The example below is only a few of them, more are appearing by the minute! I'm running Squid 1.1.9 on Linux Do i need to start my cache drive from scratch (complete rebuild) :-( or is there a way out of this. its a 2.5 gig drive and its full (2.35 gig) so i'll lose the lot! 97/04/12 17:06:20| file_open: error opening file /webcache/0D/4D/000294DD: (2) No such file or directory 97/04/12 17:06:20| storeSwapInStart: Failed for 'http://mulwala.looksmart.com:8080/k/b.gif' 97/04/12 17:06:20| file_open: error opening file /webcache/06/4E/000294E6: (2) No such file or directory 97/04/12 17:06:20| storeSwapInStart: Failed for 'http://mulwala.looksmart.com:8080/k/searchu.gif' 97/04/12 17:06:28| file_open: error opening file /webcache/00/4D/000294D0: (2) No such file or directory 97/04/12 17:06:28| storeSwapInStart: Failed for 'http://mulwala.looksmart.com:8080/k/ed2.gif' 97/04/12 17:06:36| file_open: error opening file /webcache/02/4E/000294E2: (2) No such file or directory 97/04/12 17:06:36| storeSwapInStart: Failed for 'http://mulwala.looksmart.com:8080/k/cus.gif' Steve Judge Globec Internet Services Pty Ltd http://www.globec.com.au/
