| Tag Name | cache_log |
| Usage | cache_log Directory-path/filename |
Description
This tag is used to set the path of the Cache logging file. This is where general information about the cache’s behaviour goes. Amount of data logged to this file can be increased with the debug_options tag below.
| Default | cache_log /usr/local/squid/logs/cache.log |
Example
cache_log /var/log/squid_cache.log
Caution
Do not change the default value of debug_options unless otherwise needed. Because if debug_options value is high, then logging information goes high. This leads to undesirable growth in log file.
