RE: [squid-users] Squid continually restarting

Thanks for all the replies it ended up being a matter of reinitializing (squid -z) I do not know why this would of happened as it was a matter of going from squid 2.4STABLE to 2.5 I would not of thought I would have to reinitialize the cache/swap dir.

Anyway all is well for know

Thanks again
