| - | ====== How to Install LiteSpeed Web Server from the Command Line ====== | ||
| - | This wiki will cover how to install LSWS (either Enterprise or Standard edition) from the command line. This wiki is meant for those familiar with the Unix/Linux console command line environment that see a GUI (the WebAdmin console) as a distraction and overhead. Users using a control panel should use [[litespeed_wiki:installation|the guide associated with their control panel]]. | ||
| - | |||
| - | ===== Step 1: Download the LSWS package ===== | ||
| - | |||
| - | Run the following commands from ssh as root | ||
| - | |||
| - | cd /root | ||
| - | wget http://www.litespeedtech.com/packages/4.0/lsws-4.2.12-ent-x86_64-linux.tar.gz | ||
| - | |||
| - | **Note:** Replace the values in the URL to control for your OS and which version/[[litespeed_wiki:license:what_license_to_choose|edition]] of LSWS you wish to download: | ||
| - | |||
| - | ''lsws-4.2.12-ent-x86_64-linux'' = LSWS Enterprise 4.2.12 for 64bit Linux | ||
| - | |||
| - | ''lsws-4.2.10-std-i386-linux'' = LSWS Standard 4.2.10 for 32bit Linux | ||
| - | |||
| - | ''lsws-4.2.12-ent-x86_64-freebsd6'' = LSWS Enterprise 4.2.12 for 64bit FreeBSD 6.x | ||
| - | |||
| - | **Note:** On some systems (FreeBSD), fetch can be used. | ||
| - | |||
| - | ===== Step 2: Unpack and install ===== | ||
| - | |||
| - | Unpack the tarball and run the install script | ||
| - | |||
| - | tar zxf lsws-4.2.12-ent-x86_64-linux.tar.gz | ||
| - | cd lsws-4.2.12 | ||
| - | ./install.sh | ||
| - | |||
| - | The installer will ask you a number of questions (covered in detail [[http://www.litespeedtech.com/docs/webserver/install|here]]). | ||
| - | |||
| - | **Note:** It may be best to set Port Offset to a number other than "0". If Port Offset is set to "0", LSWS may stop Apache and start LSWS after a successful installation. This is not ideal, since we still need to build the PHP binary for LiteSpeed. | ||
| - | |||
| - | ===== Step 3: Build matching PHP ===== | ||
| - | |||
| - | LSWS comes with a pre-built PHP 5 binary, but this only contains the barest of configurations and is not enough to run most websites. You should build your own PHP binary using configuration options to match those used by Apache. | ||
| - | |||
| - | <del>If LiteSpeed is running, you should switch back to Apache temporarily by clicking "switch to Apache" link.</del> | ||
| - | Then, click "Build Matching PHP binary" link. It is going take a while. | ||
| - | |||
| - | **NOTE:**If you see below error message when Build Matching PHP, try increase "Max cPanel process memory (minimum: 256)" in cPanel (Main >> Server Configuration >> Tweak Settings) to at lease 512MB. | ||
| - | |||
| - | <file> | ||
| - | Found Errors | ||
| - | |||
| - | ERROR: /usr/local/bin/php -i returns 134 | ||
| - | |||
| - | You can try to build matching PHP from command line: | ||
| - | "/usr/local/cpanel/whostmgr/cgi/lsws/cmd_buildmatchingphp.sh" | ||
| - | </file> | ||
| - | |||
| - | |||
| - | ===== Step 4: Start LiteSpeed again ===== | ||
| - | |||
| - | Just click "Restart LiteSpeed" | ||
| - | Then you can verify if everything works as expected. It should! 8-) | ||
| - | |||
| - | If "Port Offset" is set to non-zero, you can now replace Apache with LiteSpeed Web Server. Just click "Switch to LiteSpeed". | ||
| - | |||
| - | That's it. | ||
| - | |||
| - | **WARNING:** Do **NOT** uncheck "httpd" service under WHM service manager, otherwise WHM wont restart LiteSpeed automatically when configuration has been changed. | ||
