knowing that i have reinstalled the package many times, restart pfsense many times but no chance
-
I'm guessing you're just using the command
service squid startOr substitute start for restart?
-
@thanksaj i tried to start the service from the web GUI of pfsense
-
What do the logs say?
-
-
Have you recently installed anything new on your pfSense box or made any configuration changes?
-
No, i updated the version recently,
-
Since the last reboot?
-
What about uninstalling Squid and putting it back in?
-
@IT-ADMIN where is the log file exactly because i checked in this file /var/squid/logs/access.log but it doesn't show any thing about the service status

The access log is the log of what Squid has allowed. If Squid is not running, there is no process to write to that log. That log will never show anything about Squid's behaviour. You need to look at the system logs to see why a process is not starting properly.
