I have some additional information to report. First of all, the cache.log
and access.log are still 0 bytes.
I ran squid with -X -s (Xtra super logging, log to syslog) and got the
following new error messages in my /var/log/syslog file: (because it is in
syslog I do not know if all messages were generated from squid or not; also
because the error msgs are redundant I have only copied a single line of
each)
Mar 7 17:17:10 proxy squid[27306]: ipcache_init: DNS name lookup tests
failed.

Mar 7 17:17:16 proxy squid[27377]: Exiting due to repeated, frequent

I hope this rings a bell with somebody. I'm stuck here.
Thanks again.

After I uninstalled the old squid, I reset them to zero (rm cache.log, touch
cache.log) and same for access.log. They are still zero.

What is the file size of the log files inside /var/log/squid?
