At the location you specified withe the build option
--with-pidfile=/path/squid.pid
or since you seem not to have built with that option, squid attempts and
fails to create one at a BSD-specific location which does not exist on
Linux.
NP: -k shutdown will be broken by a missing PID.
Use the options I linked to the wiki for. They make the logs and pid file
etc appear in the locations needed by your OS.
