Hi,

I have configured Squid as reverse proxy with jboss and its working fine for simple http traffic. However as soon as I configure it with HTTPS for CAS it starts giving handshake errors. Can anyone point me to any useful links in this matter.

Regards,

The config you would be similar to that in the article. Users would hit squid directly or via apache, and squid would in turn fetch (and cache) the content from ucm.

Your squid conf file would have this config:

refresh_pattern ^http://ucm.host.name:8082/path/ 0 20% 0 httpd_accel_host ucm.host.name httpd_accel_port 8082

Hi vineet Thanks A lot for reply.

actually my problem is that, i am unable to caching ucm based static web site.
IN UCM the server will fetch html pages on running time that means there is no static part on server.
only ucm will fetch this static part on run time .

Thats y i am facing problem to cache this website via squid proxy.

Thanks Again vineet ,
if u have any idea how can i cache ucm based website via squid please let me know.

Thanks,
Bipin

Hi Bipin, I have successfully used this approach to cache a “dynamic” site (running on Tomcat). What specific issue are you facing?

Though I am not expert on webpage caching, I hope, there is something like expiry header on page, so that page can be refreshed from tomcat.
