Hi all,

Squid: squid-2.5.STABLE5-20040305
Linux: SuSE Linux 9.0

i found this entry in my squid logfile:
Apr 26 22:56:21 akropolis squid[5692]: WARNING: preventing off_t overflo
w
for
http://camara.ourdomain.net/fullsiz...urdomain.net/.*
no_cache deny url_cam-campus
---------cut------------

but this does not solve the problem.

Thanks a lot for help

MfG
Michael Kaiser

There is currently a limit in how large responses Squid can handle. This
limit is around 2GB on 32-bit platforms.

This camera is most likely streaming video over HTTP, and to prevent
internal disaster Squid terminates the connection to the camera when about
2GB of data has been transferred.

There is no special action required from your part, unless ofcourse if
your users are having problems due to this.

Regards
Henrik
