No bug here, let alone "very high" severity, can be closed. This is configurable in the GUI as shown above.

This option is not working also.

At first I changed the hostname of the pfsense installation. After that squid still redirected to the OLD hostname.(This is BUG NO. 1) Then I tried to set the "Redirect URL". Squid STILL redirects to the OLD hostname ( BUG NO.2 )

So there is not only one Bug. There are two....

See: https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=115323.0

The default URL is set to the pfSense GUI URL on package install. Simply because that's the only sensible default. There is no hook anywhere to make the package discover that you all of a sudden have decided to change your hostname. When you change the hostname, kindly do your job properly and do it everywhere as required.

And as for "the GUI does nothing":

$ grep "redirect http" /usr/local/etc/c-icap/squidclamav.conf
redirect https://gw.testnet.local/squid_clwarn.php

$ grep "redirect http" /usr/local/etc/c-icap/squidclamav.conf
redirect http://proxy.example.com/blocked.html

After making it empty yet again:

$ grep "redirect http" /usr/local/etc/c-icap/squidclamav.conf
redirect https://gw.testnet.local/squid_clwarn.php

I'm seeing the same redirect behavior.

Exact my problem.

So please reopen the issue. @Kill Bill

Solution:
when I installed pfSense with all packages I use, I gave it a domain name.
After some while, I changed the domain name to my DC, somehow SquidClamAV keeps the old data so I get pointed to unavailable address.
To fix this issue I edited 2 files: (Diagnostics - Edit File)
/usr/local/etc/c-icap/squidclamav.conf
/usr/local/etc/c-icap/squidclamav.conf.pfsense

• Why them both? because every time I edited the .conf file my settings get back to what it was. after changing them both pfSense kept the configuration and problem were fixed.
