Errors in Proxy Cache Log?

[spetrillo]

Hello all,

I have just begun to play around with the web proxy setup and I am getting the following in the cache log:

2020-06-06T01:15:00   | FATAL: pinger: Unable to open any ICMP sockets.
2020-06-06T01:15:00   | pinger: Unable to start ICMPv6 pinger.
2020-06-06T01:15:00   | Open icmp_sock: (1) Operation not permitted
2020-06-06T01:15:00   | pinger: Unable to start ICMP pinger.
2020-06-06T01:15:00   | Open icmp_sock: (1) Operation not permitted
2020-06-06T01:15:00   | pinger: Initialising ICMP pinger ...

Should I be concerned? IPV6 is not enabled on my setup yet.

Thanks,
Steve

Hi togther,

I have the same problem. Release is OPNsense 20.1.8_1. No IPv6 addresses are configured..

Fresh installation. It looks like a permission problem:
ls -lisa /usr/local/libexec/squid/pinger
492072 192 -r-xr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  195008 May 19 06:11 /usr/local/libexec/squid/pinger
chmod 4755 /usr/local/libexec/squid/pinger
ls -lisa /usr/local/libexec/squid/pinger
492072 192 -rwsr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  195008 May 19 06:11 /usr/local/libexec/squid/pinger

Now Squid starts...

Maybe that solution is a security risk, and i don't no if this is permanent (reboot persistens)
