Re: [squid-users] URL could not be retrieved error...

Hi!

I tried the rule you wrote, but I got no success...
Btw, the rule I wrote in my first message wasn't
accurate... In the box, I used the "-t nat". :)

What tricks me is that going through the browser, all
works fine... Through the redirect, the error page
appear.

The error page contains the following message:

===== Error message =====

ERROR
The requested URL could not be retrieved

---------------------------------------------

While trying to retrieve the URL: / (*)

The following error was encountered:

Invalid URL
Some aspect of the requested URL is incorrect.
Possible problems:

Missing or incorrect access protocol (should be
`http://'' or similar)
Missing hostname
Illegal double-escape in the URL-Path
Illegal character in hostname; underscores are not
allowed

===== Error message =====

At the point marked with (*) instead of showing the
url I actually tried to reach (in this case
http://www.yahoo.com) only a slash (/) appears, as a
link to the url. When I click it, the same page is
shown.

It seems to be some error about a bad written url...
but I'm sure I wrote it right! :)

Is there anything to do in squid.conf?

Thank you!

Seeya!
