On ubuntu 10.04.3 LTS the problem is on the "start on" line in /etc/init/squid.conf file. It is different from the one in ubuntu 11.04. You should have something like: start on runlevel [2345] or net-device-up IFACE!=lo stop on runlevel[!2345] This fixed the problem for me. Now squid shut downs properly. The /etc/init.d/sendsig works just fine and it has nothing to do with this bug since it ignores processes managed by upstart like squid. PD: I found a similar problems in /etc/init/sshd.conf causing problems when switching runlevels. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to squid in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/750371 Title: squid causing /var to stay busy during shutdown To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/squid/+bug/750371/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
