Litespeed + cPanel....

[cemmy]

Hello, I'm trying to install Litespeed (Enterprise version) on my VPS server which runs cPanel/WHM using the tutorial posted here, litespeedtech.com/support/wiki/doku.php?id=litespeed_wiki:apache:cpanel

I've installed Litespeed and it is currently running on my server, but I have no idea whatsoever how I can access the admin panel. I followed the installation steps correctly:

Would you like to start it right now [Y/n]? Y

[OK] Your trial license key will expire in 14 days!
[OK] litespeed: pid=3901.

LiteSpeed Web Server started successfully! Have fun!

The tutorial states the following:

"Install LiteSpeed Web Server as root user. During installation, make sure to set User/Group to nobody:nobody, do NOT import Apache configuration, do NOT set 2080 or 80 as the HTTP service port, those ports will be used when httpd.conf is loaded."

It never asked for the User/Group during the installation.
During the installation is also stated the following:

The administration interface is located at ocalhost:<ADMIN_PORT>/
or <ip_or_Hostname_of_this_machine>:<ADMIN_PORT>/

Now the admin configuration file states the following:

<listener>
<name>adminListener</name>
<address>*:7080</address>
<secure>0</secure>
</listener>

but when trying to access http(s)://serverip:7080 it just times out...

Very confusing. Looking forward to any replies.

Thank you

Jim

most likely a firewall issue.

to verify this, ssh to the server, wget 127.0.0.1:7080, see if time out.

Run

service iptables stop

Then try again, you could also nmap the server from another server to see if the port is indeed listening.
