trying to set up a Squid transparent proxy. All is good for the transparency, however the proxy occasionally runs into errors such as "connection to 0.0.0.0 Failed"

Is this common? Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks

    what conditions does "occasionally" describe, exactly?

You shouldn't be trying to connect to 0.0.0.0, as it's unroutable. If you are attempting to proxy to 0.0.0.0 in your configuration, more than likely someone got confused by its frequent appearance in listener definitions.

  • Well, the thing is that i'm not connecting to 0.0.0.0; I'm simply trying to access a normal site; ie. google.com. It doesn't happen every time, but it does.

  • Have you performed a grep on your config files to verify that 0.0.0.0 is only being used to specify an address to listen on?
