Thanks.

it is ok to run apache and litespeed in parallel (on different ports) to make sure litespeed functions well before take over. you should build matching php in lsws first. according to your build command, mysql is built in php as static extension (--with-mysql=/usr), there is no need to put 'extension=mysql.so' in php.ini which triggers warning/error message as you reported earlier.

since those lines are commented, the error messages you reported should be gone. you should check /usr/local/lsws/logs/error.log and see any further error message regarding mysql connection failure.

regarding performance tuning/improvement, you should order Hourly Support (https://store.litespeedtech.com/store/cart.php?gid=5).
