Anon,

IntelligentMirror works for both rpm and deb caching, so its equally useful for Debian.

Please apply the following patch to config.py file after downloading the source and then run setup.py .

diff --git a/intelligentmirror/config.py b/intelligentmirror/config.py

Now try restarting your squid.

If the problem persists, let us know.

Thank you!

IntelligentMirror setup has completed successfully.
Now you must reload httpd service on your machine by using the following command
[root@localhost ~]# service httpd reload [ENTER]
Also, you need to configure squid so that it can use intelligentmirror as a url rewritor plugin.
Check README file for further configurations of squid, httpd and intelligentmirror.
In case of any bugs or problems, check http://fedora.co.in/intelligentmirror .

Anon,

If squid is failing, it'll try to write logs/python tracebacks to either /var/log/squid/cache.log or /var/log/squid/squid.out . Can you please look into those files and let us know the errors? If you don't understand the errors, paste them on http://pastebin.com and give us the link.

Thank You!
