As I posted above, I think that his file is complete, and that he accidentally deleted the closing } which should be on the last line of the file he posted. The error message is not referencing line 42 of his VCL file. It is referencing builting.vcl which is concatenated after default.vcl. The error occurs on line 42 of builtin.vcl because the previous sub vcl_deliver was never closed.<div><br></div><div>The first non-whitespaced, non-comment code of builtin.vcl occurs on line 42.</div><div><a href="https://github.com/varnish/Varnish-Cache/blob/master/bin/varnishd/builtin.vcl">https://github.com/varnish/Varnish-Cache/blob/master/bin/varnishd/builtin.vcl</a><br><div><br></div><div><br></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Fri Nov 14 2014 at 11:04:16 AM Jorge <<a href="mailto:jnerin@gmail.com">jnerin@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">Tobias, it's obvious that the file you post it's not complete, please post again when you get the complete file with at least 42 lines.<br><div><br></div><div>OTOH if this file is all you have, then you have a partial file, recover a working one from your backups or create a new one.</div><div><br></div><br><div class="gmail_quote">El Fri Nov 14 2014 at 16:25:14, Tobias Karlsson (<<a href="mailto:tokar93@gmail.com" target="_blank">tokar93@gmail.com</a>>) escribió:</div><div class="gmail_quote"><br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div>Hi<br><br></div>I get the same information:<br><br><a href="https://gist.github.com/tokar86a/8e9e8d01c3f206a1630b" target="_blank">https://gist.github.com/tokar86a/8e9e8d01c3f206a1630b</a><br></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br clear="all"><div><div>MVH</div></div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><div><div><br>Tobias</div></div></div><div class="gmail_extra">
