Thanks for the help on that, I didn't know that!
I am running 2.4.STABLE2. I will upgrade my version.
Thanks again.

Wherever you read that was wrong. You need to add appropriate request
method support to your Squid.

2.5.STABLE1 already has the ones you need. You can add them to
2.4.STABLE7 by using the extension_methods directive. No older Squid
versions should be used.
