Re: [squid-users] No forward-proxy ports error in 3.3

How would i define it then in a forward proxy mode? I am getting the
following in my access.log file.

1335250139.466 29498 192.168.8.39 NONE_ABORTED/000 0 GET
http://www.nvidia.com/ - HIER_NONE/- -

The NONE_ABORTED squid request status shows that it is aborting the
request. This is happening for all the requests.No pages are opening.
The initial requests to get processed but later ones are stuck. Squid
is running on 192.168.8.40:3128. My clients are in the 192.168.8.0/24
range as you can see.

I tried to put this line in squid.conf but did not work.

http_port 192.168.8.40:8080
