Hi list,
1. I'd like to redirect **all** squid error pages to one, universal,
preferably internal squid error page. For sure I can symlink every
error page to one, but is there a clener way?
I'm not sure if I get it:
http://www.squid-cache.org/Doc/config/deny_info/
deny_info is to provide some non-default response payload (aka.
"page") instead of the 403 when an ACL performs administrative denial
of access.
As to your purpose; What is this universal message that conveys all
possible environmental conditions to the reader in one simple text?
Keep in mind that the reader may not be human; some errors are
explanations of indirect problems and only visible when the
accompanying machine instructions reach a failure (eg 30x, 401, 407
messages); and some are not errors at all but instructions for a user
on what they need to do to continue with communication (eg 511 login
pages).
2. And then, using %e code and presumably external js nested in this
page, display more detailed info for some error numbers.
Can it be done? Can squid internal web server handle easy js?
Squid is not a web server. On "error" it produces message payloads
which happen to contain HTML by default. Modern HTML can contain
embedded scripts, but they are not interpreted by Squid as anything
beyond opaque characters.
If you redirect all errors to one URL any information the client might
have had about the error is destroyed.
The symlinking you though of is the "best" way to do what you are
asking for. However, think carefully about what the purpose of
displaying an error message is, see above.

The purpose is to provide unified, debug info for 1st line of support.
End users in my corpo are not best IT trained people in the world and
they tend to open tickets for any reason, usually pasting printscreen
into ticket.
Simple debug info like: IP, user name, client name, cache name in short
list would help service desk to divide "moronic" tickets from important
ones, and as for default squid info pages... user do not read them
anyway. I do not want to remove error codes, I just want to remove
content of most error pages and replace it with unified message that
also contains raw error code (%e, %E) and add some more information if
%e will be nxdomain or access denied for example.
Unfortunately, I'm far from VPN right now, so I cannot show you the
sample "unified" error page I've commited till now.
But indeed, you have striked the home; cache users are both human and
machine$ AD accounts, I must reconsider that. Perhaps parsing all error
pages with sed ie and adding few lines will be easer and more
convenient, anyway.
I know that squid is not web serwer, but error page is html; I assume it
can contains iframe served from external web server and this will be
rendered by client's browser, not squid? My idea was:
- js nested in squid error page looks for error code
- then redirects nested iframe to specific URL hosted on external httpd
depending on error code. If error code is unimportant for human (user
can do nothing with that anyway), iframe stays blank.
- human client has has his explenation like "this is your error, do not
open ticket please, check your URL again" for nxdomain.
We are talking about ~2K users and 3-4 cache servers. I must take
comfort of first line support into concideration, they are quite
heavy-loaded already.
I'm not feeling comfortable with this idea, but I also have a feeling
that it might be necessity.
Thank You.
