I got same error, i don't why. ~ $ sudo /etc/init.d/squid stop Rather than invoking init scripts through /etc/init.d, use the service(8) utility, e.g. service squid stop
Since the script you are attempting to invoke has been converted to an Upstart job, you may also use the stop(8) utility, e.g. stop squid squid stop/waiting ~ $ sudo pidof squid See, above command says nothing. but it doesn't means squid is stopped.
