Set squid to cache everything

Hi,
I want to make a squid proxy server which will cache everything and keep those cache and refresh the cache after 15 days least. Can you guys please give me a good configuration about that ?

Again, I want to cache everything from large ISO files to small gif files and archives . Thanks in advance. This is for my internal network (home systems).

    caching large files is a bad idea. :)

max_stale 2 weeks
refresh_pattern . 60 50% 14400 store-stale

    Try to enable logging, then re-try to create cache swap. By default, you can analyze all errors during cache swap creation in /var/log/squid/cache.log. In most case, cache swap creation failed because of file/folder permission issue.
