Can't remove wccp commands from ASA 5555-X

[cbell]

After cleaning up names in many object groups which required the removal of the wccp config lines, I can't put back the wccp config for service groups 0 and 70, I'm receiving the following error:

"ERROR: Can't change redirect-acl, first remove wccp configuration and re-enter with new redirect-acl"

The config has no wccp info left except "wccp 0" and "wccp 70" which can't be removed and means I can't set the redirect lists (these 2 lines appear to be stuck in the config)

Here is the CLI session attempting to confgure the 2 entries:

--

ASA5555X# conf t
ASA5555X(config)# wccp 0 redirect-list WCCP_WS-REDIRECT group-list WCCP_WS-PROXY
ERROR: Can't change redirect-acl, first remove wccp configuration and re-enter with new redirect-acl
ASA5555X(config)# wccp 70 redirect-list WCCP_WS-REDIRECT group-list WCCP_WS-PROXY
ERROR: Can't change redirect-acl, first remove wccp configuration and re-enter with new redirect-acl
ASA5555X(config)#
ASA5555X# sh run | inc wccp
wccp 0
wccp 70
ASA5555X# conf t
ASA5555X(config)# no wccp 0
ASA5555X(config)# no wccp 70
ASA5555X(config)#
ASA5555X# sh run | inc wccp
wccp 0
wccp 70
ASA5555X#

Relevant prior wccp confg: (minus the thousands of object group member entries)

I have tried from SSH/Console and ASDM but can't get the 2 lines removed, even tried power-cycling.

I can remove the ACLs and the wccp interface commands just fine, but not the wccp 0/70 ones.

Is there some special way WCCP has to be removed after it's activated or is this bugged?

Hi,
If you want to remove all wccp configuration from ASA you could try:
clear configure wccp

The command did not work on the version I was running "9.8(1)" but did work after upgrading to "9.8(2)8"and the lines are now removed.

Running 9.9(1) here and I can't get the WCCP config to remove/change.

Tried ASDM and CLI/SSH

Funny thing is, I have been doing this all morning, and the moment that I sort of confirmed with Forcepoint the commands I have now are correct, is when it stops letting me modify.

Ok, so after running the 'clear wccp config' command, and waiting a couple of minutes it did actually clear out.
