RE: [squid-users] Squid won't execute from command line

Thank you Henrik, that was exactly the cause! Not surprisingly, turning off
SELinux also allowed Squid to create the cache directories in a non-default
location. I'll perhaps worry about figuring out SELinux policies and what
caused the problem later. Now I'll just work on setting up the rest of
this.

Thanks again.
Geoff

Another user reported similar problems recently, and it boiled down to a
SELinux policy issue. (strict policy not liking Squid if you configure it
to go outside the configured policy)
