Re: [squid-users] coss configuration example

Hi Steven,

I have tried following but it failed
dd if=/dev/zero bs=1048576 count=2048 of=/cache_log/coss

Part of Squid.conf
----------------------
cache_dir coss /cache_log/coss 2500 block-size=512 max-size=131072
cache_access_log /var/log/squid/access.log
cache_log /var/log/squid/cache.log
cache_store_log none
cache_swap_log none

Squid was compiled as
----------------------------
./configure --enable-storeio=coss --enable-coss-aio-ops --with-large-files

While starting the squid i am getting error as

I don't know what went wrong.
