I've just installed varnish on my development server and it's running without changing any configuration. So now it just asks Apache for the response and passes it back.
Well, I'm a newbie and I'm trying to cache javascript, css and images to test varnish. My problem is that if I write return (lookup); in vcl_recv gives me error on service varnish restart!!
vcl 4.0;
# Default backend definition. Set this to point to your content server.
backend default {
.host = "127.0.0.1";
.port = "80";
}
sub vcl_recv {
# Happens before we check if we have this in cache already.
#
# Typically you clean up the request here, removing cookies you don't need,
# rewriting the request, etc.
#hash_data(req.url);
#if (req.http.host) {
# hash_data(req.http.host);
#} else {
# hash_data(server.ip);
#}
return (lookup);
}
sub vcl_backend_response {
# Happens after we have read the response headers from the backend.
#
# Here you clean the response headers, removing silly Set-Cookie headers
# and other mistakes your backend does.
}
sub vcl_deliver {
# Happens when we have all the pieces we need, and are about to send the
# response to the client.
#
# You can do accounting or modifying the final object here.
}
This configuration in default.vcl gives me the next error on restart:
Job for varnish.service failed. See 'systemctl status varnish.service' and 'journalctl -xn' for details.
Help me please!!
