AW: [squid-users] Processes don`t start

Check your startup scripts.

In squid 2.5 squid executable has moved to .../squid/sbin directory.
Probably you actually start the 2.4 executable which is located in
.../squid/bin

2.5 do run in Debian and so does squid 3. But I guess that the problem is
that you might have forgotten to do some final configurations before
starting squid.

Have you checked that the user that is executing squid have vrite access to
log directory and spool (cache) directory? Does those directories exist?
Have you initialized the cache with squid -z command? If you aren't sure
where the squid writes log files, where the spool directory is, and what is
the squid user please specify them explicitely in the squid.conf.
