Do you store images in same directory or loading from remote web server? Did you edited correct file in /etc/squid/errors (RHEL specific).

Here is an example of edited /etc/squid/error/ERR_FORWARDING_DENIED file. Note i've added the following code:

HTML Code:

<p><center><IMG SRC="http://figs.cyberciti.biz/nixcraft.com.logo.jpg" /></center></p>

Here is a sample file

HTML Code:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
<HTML><HEAD><META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" CONTENT="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
<TITLE>ERROR: The requested URL could not be retrieved</TITLE>
<STYLE type="text/css"><!--BODY{background-color:#ffffff;font-family:verdana,sans-serif}PRE{font-family:sans-serif}--></STYLE>
</HEAD><BODY>
<p><center><IMG SRC="http://figs.cyberciti.biz/nixcraft.com.logo.jpg" /></center></p>
<H1>ERROR</H1>


<H2>The requested URL could not be retrieved</H2>
<HR noshade size="1px">
<P>
While trying to retrieve the URL:
<A HREF="%U">%U</A>
<P>
The following error was encountered:
<UL>
<LI>
<STRONG>
Forwarding Denied.

</UL>

<P>
This cache will not forward your request because it is trying to enforce a
sibling relationship.  Perhaps the client at %i is a cache which has been
misconfigured.
<P>Your cache administrator is <A HREF="mailto:%w">%w</A>.

Here is my Access Denied File.....!

<html>
<center>
<div>
<img src="wallpaper.jpg"><br></div>
<div>
<font color="RED"><em>Access Denied

lease Contact <a href="mailto:admin@domain">Administrator</a> for more information.</em></font>

Wallpaper is in the same directory where Error Pages are.......Code is correct but image not showing in Error Pages to Clients.....

Thankx

I think it doesn't accept image from local dir. You need to have it from remote server. Try free image hosting and it should work.

I'm no expert but use full http url path

Code:

http://freeimagehosting.net/uploads/e61f15f900.gif

something like:

HTML Code:

<html>
<center><img src="http://freeimagehosting.net/uploads/e61f15f900.gif"></center>
<font color="RED"><em>Access Denied:- Please Contact <a href="mailto:admin@domain.com">Administrator</a> for more information.</em></font>

</html>

Do you acl to block access to test it? If not add it. Than restart the squid

Code:

service squid restart
