Hello List.

I installed videocache from source on Debian Lenny and was looking at the videocache.log and noticed that I'm getting CACHE_FULL YOUTUBE. I don't know what I'm doing wrong since videocache is not caching videos. I also checked /var/spool/videocache/youtube and there isn't anything in there.

This is what my videocache.conf looks like:
enable_video_cache = 1
cache_host = 127.0.0.1
proxy = http://127.0.0.1:3128/

proxy_username =
proxy_password =
hit_threshold = 1

# I want 10GB of videos
base_dir = /var/spool/videocache/ : 10240
disk_avail_threshold = 100

This is videocache.log:

Sorry for the double post. Thanks in advanced for your help.

I changed

cache_host = 127.0.0.1
proxy = http://127.0.0.1:3128/

to an actual ip address:

cache_host = 172.16.0.1
proxy = http://172.16.0.1:3128/

But, still getting:

1. try without dir size limit. I think size limiting is bugged.
2. how much free space do you have on your hdd ?

My HDD is only 30% full. I'm not using any quota or space limiting. I also changed the cache_host to an actual ip address:
cache_host=172.16.0.1 and also changed the base_dir :

base_dir= /var/spool/videocache/:0

Now, at least I see in the videocache.log that has downloaded some videos:

Looks like is working but, don't know which of the two changes fixed the problem.

Also, I think you need to change this:

base_dir = /var/spool/videocache/ : 10240

to this:

base_dir = /var/spool/videocache/:10240

Then type in update-vc and restart squid & apache. Or just reboot.

I tried:

base_dir = /var/spool/videocache/:10240
and
base_dir = /var/spool/videocache/ : 10240

and neither work. If I use a cache size I get CACHE_FULL. Looks like thats a bug.
