[squid-users] Re: commBind: Cannot bind socket FD 12 to *:3128

PLEASE do not crosspost wildly on all the squid addresses you know. Just
posting to squid-users is sufficient.

This means that there is something having port 3128 active. Usually this
is caused by other software using the same port, but in some rare
situations it can also be caused by an old connection which is not yet
cleaned up by the TCP/IP stack after an uncontrolled restart of Squid.

To see what kinds of uses there is active for port 3128 you can use the
following command:

netstat -an -t | grep 3128

In the first case (LISTEN, CONNECTED etc) you need to find what
application is having the port open. For this purpose the lsof tool can be
used if it is not obvious from a ps listing.

In the second case (TIMEWAIT) the problem will go away automatically in a
few seconds.
