Re: [squid-users] Squid 3.1.10 CentOS : cache_swap_log (13) Permission Denied

Thanks for this, Eliezer, it makes sense that this option is not more used.
I define effective_group as squid, but do not specify effective_user.
squid user can access rwx to /var/cache/squid
Will try this wednesday morning...

Thanks again,
Christophe
