Uploaded a new file with some websites and added to specific category, but i did not find that websites in the respective category
SafeSquid interface is hanged when I try to add custom websites to any category,

Root Causes

Verify the status of Categorization Engine from Statistic page of SafeSquid Interface. 
SafeSquid server is unable to contact SafeSquid category server
The file(websites) was not uploaded correctly. 

Troubleshooting

Check for connection to category server from your SafeSquid server

Run below command and see below output 
  1. telnet category.safesquid.net 443
  2. Trying 139.59.16.202...
  3. Connected to category.safesquid.net.
  4. Escape character is '^]'.
If the server is not reachable, you have to run below commands and try telnet again 
  1. rndc flush
  2. /etc/init.d/bind9 restart
