Using normaly CentOS8 Squid as VM. When installing a CentOS9-VM Squid on a Win11pro PC, Boinc discovers this VM and use it for this Win11pro, but the Squid is connected on a CentOS8-VM in this Boinc! Have this now on two PC's. No idea why. Atlas stuck for upload, when using this CentOS9 Squid in Boinc. CMS using and uploading is successful. This is a example for Atlas: 07.06.2022 10:56:29 | LHC@home | Backing off 00:03:15 on upload of yjiNDmywgI1nfZGDcpSWOuwoABFKDmABFKDmTzMbDmY1DLDmjpebSm_0_r934943942_ATLAS_result 07.06.2022 10:56:30 | | Internet access OK - project servers may be temporarily down. |

It's very hard to understand the post. Using normaly CentOS8 Squid as VM. Does it mean you run a CentOS 8 VM and within this VM you run a Squid from the CentOS 8 repository? Does it mean you configured most of your BOINC clients to use that Squid? Which Squid version did you install on CentOS 8? squid --version When installing a CentOS9-VM Squid on a Win11pro PC So, you installed CentOS 9 on another VM (on a Win 11 host, but the host OS doesn't really matter), including the Squid package from the CentOS 9 repository? Which Squid version did you install on CentOS 9? Just in case CentOS 9 installs Squid version >4: AFAIK Squid version >4 is not yet certified to be used in the CERN environment. Boinc discovers this VM and use it for this Win11pro ... What does "discovers" mean? It's totally unclear. ... but the Squid is connected on a CentOS8-VM in this Boinc Which Squid do you mean with "the Squid"? Do you mean the proxy entry in BOINC (which BOINC client)? Atlas stuck for upload, when using this CentOS9 Squid in Boinc. So far you explained all your BOINC clients connect via the Squid on CentOS 8 (which worked fine even for ATLAS). CMS job uploads are done from inside the CMS VM and always bypass the Squid you configured in BOINC. ATLAS result uploads are first copied back from the VM to BOINC and BOINC handles the upload either directly or via the configured proxy. |

Using normaly CentOS8 Squid as VM. CentOS8-VM Squid 4.15 CentOS9-VM Squid 5.2 (only CMS atm) Both with using HTCP. |

CMS is only running for testing CentOS9-VM in this Win10pro:https://lhcathome.cern.ch/lhcathome/show_host_detail.php?hostid=10408749 Boinc 7.16.20 in both: Win10pro and Win11pro. Atlas works with Squid CentOS9-VM, BUT upload stuck, see first message. Squid CentOS8-VM no problems. Same squid.conf in CentOS8-VM and CentOS9-VM, but different LAN-Adresses, of course. |

Atlas works with Squid CentOS9-VM, BUT upload stuck, see first message. Squid CentOS8-VM no problems. As you wrote: you use a Squid 5.2 on your CentOS 9 VM and that may cause the upload problem. If you want a stable system it is suggested to stay on Squid 4.x. In your case (many BOINC clients and lots of hardware) it may be a good idea to run one of the smaller computers with a recent Linux, e.g. CentOS 8 if you like it, and use it exclusively for Squid. |

CentOS8 have no Mirror, out of support since 2022/01. 40 Year Windows, my age allowed me no new OS (Linux!) |

CentOS8 have no Mirror, out of support since 2022/01.As announced a couple of years ago, CentOS became "CentOS Stream". Conversion instructions for CentOS8 to CentOS Stream8 are at https://www.centos.org/centos-stream/. (I've not tried them; I've been reverting to C7 instead). |

In your case (many BOINC clients and lots of hardware) it may be a good idea to run one of the smaller computers with a recent Linux, e.g. CentOS 8 if you like it, and use it exclusively for Squid. This Computer have a VM for using Squid: PCRYZEN9 with RYZEN9COS8SQ (Squid-CentOS8) RYZENMP with RYZENMPSQ (Squid-CentOS9) P620-3995 with P620-CentOS9 (Squid-CentOS9) Where PCRYZEN9 is a Win10-Workstation OS. The other two are Win11pro OS. |

CentOS8 have no Mirror Archived Centos packages can be downloaded here: https://vault.centos.org Depending on the libs a package is linked to it may or may not work on the recent Centos version. This is a direct link to Squid 4.15 (for Centos 8.5) on the archive server: https://vault.centos.org/8.5.2111/AppStream/x86_64/os/Packages/squid-4.15-1.module_el8.5.0+860+303ccf92.x86_64.rpm Just install it on Centos 9 and see if it works. As an option there's a CERN/Fermilab customized Squid version included in the Frontier package. See: https://twiki.cern.ch/twiki/bin/view/Frontier/InstallSquidTarball The whole Frontier package is primarily thought for data centers, hence may be a bit too heavy for private use. |

Have 2 GByte Squid-Data in access.log in a few days for this CentOS8-VM. CentOS9-VM is for testing with CMS. Have no problem to wait and see what happens. Secure-Patches for this CentOS8-VM coming from Cern. Thank you for this alternates. All is well. |

Have one time forgotten to enable the CentOS9-VM in Boinc for CMS. wpad.dat show this: // no squid found matching the remote ip address function FindProxyForURL(url, host) { if (shExpMatch(url, "*.openhtc.io*")) { return "DIRECT"; } return "PROXY http://lhchomeproxy.cern.ch:3125; PROXY http://lhchomeproxy.fnal.gov:3125"; } |

Theory is also working with Squid 5.2 in CentOS9-VM. |

Using only Squid on CentOS8-VM atm, but testing using of CentOS9-VM! access.log in CentOS8-VM reaching 2.3 GByte in three days now, before more than one week! |
