Hi,

Make sure , that none of your files such as access.log, or cache.log
are too big (>2Gb). If so they need to be trimmed.

Dinesh

Hello,

Check this out,

http://www.squid-cache.org/mail-archive/squid-users/200206/0192.html

One of your log files has hit the maximum size supported by your OS (2GB).

Manually rotate the offending file to be able to start Squid, then set up log
rotation to ensure your logs is rotated often enought to not run into this
limit.

Try to do as,

./squid -k rotate

to rotate log files. Can you post the log file sizes here. May be your file system is FULL too. Check as,

# df -h
