The most probable case is that Squid isn't running and the pid file is
stale mentioning an old pid which has now been used by your OS for some
other process.

First check if there is a squid process running.

Then check if the squid.pid file contents matches the process id of your
Squid.

If it doesn't match then the pid file is stale for some reason. Most
likely Squid had crashed and some other process got assigned the same
pid. See cache.log for any hints on why Squid crashed.

If it does match then check which user id your Squid process is running
under. In linux "cat /proc/###/status" where ### is the pid of your
Squid. Match this to your cache_effective_user setting in squid.conf.
