| - | ====== How to convert your cPanel server to LiteSpeed in 20 minutes ====== | ||
| - | This only works with LiteSpeed Web Server Enterprise Edition. | ||
| - | |||
| - | **Note:** For support issues, please use the [[http://www.litespeedtech.com/support/forum/|LiteSpeed forum]] for free support. cPanel support will **NOT** handle issues related to LiteSpeed server. | ||
| - | |||
| - | |||
| - | |||
| - | ===== Step 1: Install LiteSpeed WHM plugin ===== | ||
| - | Run the following commands from ssh as root | ||
| - | |||
| - | cd /usr/src; curl http://www.litespeedtech.com/packages/cpanel/lsws_whm_plugin_install.sh | sh | ||
| - | |||
| - | //Note: To uninstall WHM LiteSpeed plugin, run command as follows:// | ||
| - | /usr/local/cpanel/whostmgr/docroot/cgi/lsws/lsws_whm_plugin_uninstall.sh | ||
| - | |||
| - | ===== Step 2: Install LiteSpeed Speed Web Server from within WHM ===== | ||
| - | - click "LiteSpeed Web Server Plugin for WHM" in "Plugins" section of WHM. | ||
| - | - click "Install LiteSpeed Web Server" | ||
| - | - Fill in the form to sepecify | ||
| - | * Trial license key or serial number | ||
| - | * LiteSpeed target installation directory | ||
| - | * Port Offset ( set to 0 to replace Apache otherwise set a number like "2000" to try LiteSpeed on port 2080 ) | ||
| - | * Whether to enable PHP SuEXEC | ||
| - | * Assign user name and password for LWSW web admin console | ||
| - | * Your email address as the Administrators email. | ||
| - | - Click "Next" to install LiteSpeed | ||
| - | |||
| - | If you set Port Offset to "0", it may stop Apache and start LiteSpeed after a successful installation, you may want to switch back to Apache temporarily as we still need to build PHP binary for LiteSpeed. | ||
| - | |||
| - | |||
| - | ===== Step 3: Build matching PHP binary ===== | ||
| - | There is a pre-built PHP 4 binary coming with LSWS, however, you should build your own PHP binary using matching configuration options used by Apache mod_php. | ||
| - | |||
| - | <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. | ||

| - | ERROR: /usr/local/bin/php -i returns 6 | ||
| - | |||
| - | You can try to build matching PHP from command line: | ||
| - | "/usr/local/cpanel/whostmgr/cgi/lsws/cmd_buildmatchingphp.sh" | ||
| - | </file> | ||

| - | 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. | ||
