Upgrade squid 4 to squid 5 #20

Closed ICTAddict closed 2 years ago

This isn't a bug, but I couldn't find a 'help wanted' label.

I've followed the steps provided here to install squid 4.13 on Ubuntu Server 20.04. How do I upgrade to squid 5.5? I think I should remove this file /etc/apt/sources.list.d/squid413-ubuntu20.diladele.com.list before adding the source for 5.5, right? what else do I have to do?

Also, I would like to keep the old cache from squid 4.13 if there's a way to do that, because my internet is slow and limited.

Thanks.

I have not tried this actually - but it seems your understanding is correct.

apt update
apt upgrade

I think cache dir is preserved - but never tried.

Thank you! It worked.

At first, the log didn't show any cache hits, so I looked at squid documentation https://wiki.squid-cache.org/SquidFaq/OperatingSquid and deleted swap.state to trigger cache objects validation. I re-read the instructions again, and I think that I just sped up what would have happened eventually.

Thanks again.
