Hello,

You are using a very old version of videocache. Back then, it was known as youtube_cache. Please download and install the latest version of videocache from download section and follow the instruction in configure section to configure videocache properly.

Thank you for using videocache :)

http://sitegeisha.blogspot.com/2008/11/youtube-cache-with-squid.html

I did not noticed it was version 1.2 .

so I should follow the same steps but using version 1.6 ?
