[squid-users] Squid 2.6 not caching downloaded files

Hi,

I have noticed that my squid is only caching HTML files and not downloaded
files.

in my squid.conf I have "maximum_object_size 250 MB", but whenever I do test
downloads the file is downloaded from the source.

When the initial download completes, store.log writes RELEASE and the URL of
the file. access.log indicates TCP_MISS when I try subsequent downloads.

my squid.conf is as follows:

http_port 3128 transparent
hierarchy_stoplist cgi-bin ?
acl QUERY urlpath_regex cgi-bin \?
cache deny QUERY
acl apache rep_header Server ^Apache
access_log /var/log/squid/access.log squid hosts_file /etc/hosts

Can somebody please check if I am missing something?
