DocumentRoot/path problem

[st2410]

Hello,

I've recently switched from Apache to LiteSpeed Web Server. However, after switching to LiteSpeed, my sites have stopped working. I'm using cPanel on CentOS 5.5.

I checked the error logs and it seems as though my DocumentRoot has changed. The errors are similar to the one below:

[xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:60411-0#APVH_xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx_host.name.com] File not found [/usr/local/apache/htdocs/images/logo.png]

Looks like it's trying to find files at /usr/local/apache/htdocs instead of /home/username/public_html/

Would you happen to know how to fix this issue?

Thank you!

Looks likely litespeed not installed properly.

can you re-install litespeed 4.1, follow steps described in
http://www.litespeedtech.com/support...pache:ezcpanel
How to convert your cPanel server to LiteSpeed in 20 minutes

note:set port offset, say 2000. so can run apache and litespeed at the same time and can do the comparison.

I think you were using standard edition with 5 vhosts limits.

I've re-installed LiteSpeed again using that guide and the error is still the same. I've also tried uninstalling LiteSpeed + the WHM/cPanel plugin and re-installing again but it doesn't work either.

I changed the port offset to 2000 and Apache works fine but LiteSpeed doesn't. You can check it out here: :80 (Apache) and :2080 (LiteSpeed)

I'm using the 4 CPU Enterprise Edition of LiteSpeed.

Any ideas as to what the problem could be?

Thank you!

I tested 1 .js file:
http://46.4.95.1 4 5/~ih o neyd/comp.../js/default.js
http://46.4.95.1 4 5:2080/~ih o neyd.../js/default.js

both are displaying fine.

the problem is when accessing 46.4.95.1 4 5:2080/~ih o neyd/, is 404 Not Found, and ~ih o neyd/ is removed from all subsequent request URLs. so above .js became 46.4.95.1 4 5:2080/components/com_zoo/assets/js/default.js, hence 404 Not Found error again, looks DocumentRoot changed as you reported.

2 questions:
1.how about other accounts?
2.how about 46.4.95.1 4 5:2080/~ih o neyd/phpinfo.php ? does it display correctly?

Hi, you can test the phpinfo now. It works fine when you access that file.

As for other accounts, they have the same errors.

And could it be possible if you remove the live links to my server please? I just don't want it publicly displayed.

Thank you!

Hi, I've modified the URLs in my previous post following your way.

what's your litespeed version? and the time stamp of /usr/local/lsws/bin/lshttpd.4.x?

[st2410]

My LiteSpeed version is 4.0.20, which was what the WHM/cPanel plugin installed. The timestamp of lshttpd.4.0.20 is 1186384 Apr 18 20:22.

forgot to mention: I confirmed both :80/~xxx/phpinfo.php and :2080/~xxx/phpinfo.php are working fine.

before the last resolution(login your server), can you try:

1.Force Reinstall 4.0.20 (in lsws admin web console)
2.Enable EasyApache Integration (cPanel lsws plug-in)
3.Build Matching PHP Binary
(even see "No action needed for PHP version 5.2.17" message, go ahead anyway)
4. after build done, restart lsws.

Hi,

I've just performed all the steps listed above and it still isn't working. Apache works fine but LiteSpeed doesn't. Strange because LiteSpeed should be reading Apache's conf file so there shouldn't be a problem.

Would you like root access to the server?
