Try this.

[root@localhost ~]# chown -R squid:squid /var/log/youtube_cache/
[root@localhost ~]# chmod -R 755 /var/log/youtube_cache/

After this restart squid service and then check for errors. If you still get any errors get back with details on which version, operating system and how did you install (rpm/tarball)?

Hi!

Please mention which version of videocache you are using? Nobody reported any problem with latest version 1.6 as of now which is available in download section. Try installing that. In case you still get errors, paste your /etc/videocache.conf file to http://pastebin.com/ .

Also, please mention your name instead of anonymous. It doesn't feel good to talk to anonymous :D

Thanks for using videocache :)
