Description Julia Bremer univentionstaff 2019-03-06 09:08:38 CET
If squid is configured as a transparent proxy,
this Error ocurres:

==> /var/log/squid/cache.log <==
2019/03/05 11:33:37 kid1| ERROR: No forward-proxy ports configured.

This seems to happen, because Squid requires a port configured to receive normal forward-proxy traffic, and port 3128 is now used as a transparent port.

Also "transparent" needs to be changed to "intercept" in the squid config:
