Dedicated IP VirtualHosts from httpd.conf

[dreamscape]

I've been thinking about using LiteSpeed on my production server which is cPanel controlled. I love the use Apache config option, but when I test it locally, it lumps all my SSL hosts under a single *:443 listener. Obviously this is no good as each SSL host needs a dedicated IP. They are setup under dedicated IPs in httpd.conf.

Is this a known issue, or could it just be how I have my local SSL hosts set up?

Come to think of it, it also lumped all the non SSL hosts together under a single *:80 even though some are setup on dedicated IPs in httpd.conf.

Can anyone running LiteSpeed on cPanel using the read Apache config option comment on if LiteSpeed sets up appropriate listeners for hosts with dedicated IPs, or if it tries to lump them all together under the wildcard as it is doing for me locally?

Thanks

Ok so I setup litespeed on the server and setup "Using Apache Configuration File" with a port offset to test it out.

The same thing happens with a standard cPanel httpd.conf, all dedicated IP virtual hosts are lumped together under the wildcard * with the shared-IP virtual hosts.

So I guess LiteSpeed does not support dedicated IP virtual hosts when using the "Using Apache Configuration File" option?

Dreamscape, please email your Apache httpd.conf to xing@litespeedtech.com so we can check it out. Thanks.

[dreamscape]

Sure. I just emailed a portion of the httpd.conf over.

The SSL certificates are not working either. If I try to connect to one of the SSL hosts using curl to see the error, I get the message "unknown protocol". The certificates were all setup & installed through WHM, so the keys and everything were generated by cPanel, if that helps any.

Same problem as dreamscape. Virtualhosts with dedicated ips and SSL certs are not being set up correctly when loading Apache config as created by Cpanel. FYI, Cpanel restricts the cert and private (key) directory to root group only.

Cpanel uses a global listener for all SSL vhosts, whereas LiteSpeed needs individual listener for each SSL vhost, we need a little time to come up with a clean solution for this.

Please stay tuned.

The SSL configuration issue has been fixed in 2.2.5 release.

Did this fix also take care of assignment of non-ssl dedicated ips as well, or is it just fixing SSL? All sites seem to be lumped in to one listener even if they are assigned to a dedicated ip in the apache httpd.conf under cpanel, but I have several customers who have dedicated IP sites that are not ssl.
