We learned about some of the common problems faced by Squid users and how we can solve them quickly by modifying various directives in the Squid configuration file. We also learned about debugging various components of Squid via cache.log.

Specifically, we covered:

• Some commonly known problems and their solutions

• Debugging specific components of Squid via the cache.log file

• Using online resources to get help to solve issues with Squid

• Reporting bugs to Squid developers

We learned the various ways to track problems with Squid and steps to strategically debug and solve the issues. If we get stuck with a problem, we can always get in touch with fellow Squid users through the Squid users mailing list.
