@IT-ADMIN oooooooof it works now, i found the solution here https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=69781.0
i changed the hard disk cache location from /var/squid/cache to /var/squid/cache2, it solved the problem

I was just about to link that one

Looking in the logs made it pretty easy.

@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.

i forget to say that recently i tried to add a captive portal, but i deleted it

after the upgrade i reboot it many times
but since this morning the squid service not wanting to start

@IT-ADMIN i even remove all cached configuration in the XML config file but no chance

@scottalanmiller said:

What about uninstalling Squid and putting it back in?

yes Mr Scott i tried uninstall the package and install it again but no chance

@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

@thanksaj i tried to start the service from the web GUI of pfsense
