[Solved] Installing an SSL Certificate in WHM with LSWS

Hello,

When I try to install an SSL Certificate via WHM on a Litespeed powered server, the server automatically switched to from Litespeed to Apache. Is there a special set of instructions to avoid that? Especially when resellers can install SSL Certificates for their clients?

Please advise

 

pls be more specific on how to reproduce the issue.

 

1. Login to WHM
2. Navigate to " Install a SSL Certificate and Setup the Domain"
3. Fill out the SSL Certificate information (Cert, Key, CA, Domain, IP, username etc...)
4. Click "Submit"

cPanel will proceed to install the SSL Certificate, and it will install it successfully. However, when I looked at Litespeed, it was off and Apache was on.

Is this normal? Maybe I missed a step which tells cPanel to use lsws instead of httpd as it's default HTTP Server?

 

Thanks for the clarification.

Make sure you set 'Auto Reload On Changes' (http://www.litespeedtech.com/docs/webserver/config/general/#autoReloadApacheConf) to 'Using Apache binary wrapper'

 

This option was already selected. So I tried again, and the same issue happened. This server runs CENTOS 6.3 x86_64 xenpv / WHM 11.36.0 (build 6)

Screenshot below:

 

Tried all of these methods but still I have the problem and after I tried to change the server goes offline.

 

Hello, any insight on this issue?

 

Please run below from command line and paste the screenshot here.

 

^^ I think this is the key to the problem here.

 

use /usr/local/apache/bin/httpd instead of /usr/sbin/httpd.

 

Hello,

Thanks! I made that change to LSWS Config and I can confirm that it has resolved the issue I had. Thank you very much!
