access.log squid empty after re-create

HelloFolks,

Need your advice about my problem. I remove my access.log squid because it's huge capacity. Then I re-create it using touch command under: /var/log/squid/access.log and give owner/permission: squid/ 777 for this new access.log

Then the problem is while I access any connection to internet via squid there is no log in access.log
I also use command: squid -k rotate, it duplicate access.log.0 but the problem still same (there is no log)

What I miss in this problem? Hope you can help me.
Thanks for your advice..

Here my capture under: /var/log/squid
Code:
root@Cornwallis:~ # ls -la /var/log/squid/

I have been restart my squid before after re-create access.log but the log sill not raise.
As your advice then i restart again and browsing some internet connection. Still facing same problem.

Try this:
  • Stop Squid; service squid stop Make sure all Squid processes are gone.
  • Remove file; rm /var/log/squid/access.log
  • Start squid; service squid start
 
Thanks Sir Dice. It's work. The problem is access.log still exist even I remove it. Then I remove it once again and start squid.
access log back to catch our log history.
Thanks for your advice...
