[Solved] litespeed stopped... is there a timer on trial version?

[bangsters]

I just realized that my litespeed trial install just stopped, and I had to start it again manually from console.

Is there any timer that makes it shutdown while in trial mode?

Also, on a side note, everytime I restart litespeed, it also starts httpd/apache. Is that normal??? Do I have to stop httpd service?

there is no timer to stop lsws unless your trial period is up. check error log for any clue why it is stopped.

restart lsws should not trigger apache to start (assuming lsws reads apache httpd.conf). you should turn off httpd (service httpd off) so that http port would not be taken by apache when server bootup.

this is weird.... I stopped httpd, removed it from startup as well.... but look below, it restarts when i restart lsws...

[root@node1 ~]# service httpd status
httpd is stopped
[root@node1 ~]# /usr/local/lsws/bin/lswsctrl restart
[OK] Send SIGUSR1 to 8439
[root@node1 ~]# service httpd status
httpd (pid 8581) is running...

do 'ps -ef| grep litespeed' and 'ps -ef| grep httpd'

Thanks!! Looks like I just found a new issue.

I compiled PHP 5.2.17 in litespeed portal. I have then put ioncube loader 5.2.so in php.ini.

However, if I do php -v in console, it tells me that php is 5.3. What's worse is that ioncube is acting up because it's looking for 5.3.so even if the correct ioncube loader is installed. Below is what shows up in php -v

[root@node1 ioncube]# php -v

OK Got it fixed.

Apparently there's a 2nd instance running, and I needed to change the binaries to point to the litespeed php version.

All working good now.

Thanks!!!
