Limit squid logging to avoid unnecessary messages

[skywalker007]

My squid log gets flooded with messages like this:
127.0.0.1 TCP_MISS/200 1690 GET cache_object://localhost/counters

Anyone know how to filter out those messages so I can focus on real access log from my clients?

thanks! Till

Do you have 3rd party software active, monitoring via cache manager? These are no log entries that occure in default settings.

You could try:

Code Select Expand

acl exclude dst localhost
access_log none exclude

thanks for this, I assume it comes from the netdata plugin which also monitors squid.
Where would I put those manual overwrites?

[hbc]

squid.conf

Am I not overwriting it once I do a change in the UI then?

Thank you this also works in other Squid servers.
