-====== LSCache + Drupal 7 Configuration ====== +~~REDIRECT>​https://​docs.litespeedtech.com/lscache/noplugin/settings/~~
- +
-LSCache, similar to Varnish cache, is a simpler and more efficient page caching solution built-in to LiteSpeed Web Server. When used in conjunction with Drupal 7, you can expect significant performance gains with a quick and easy setup. Cache management is also made significantly easier and more flexible with the ability to use rewrite rules to customize cache behavior. +
- +
-Below are some recommended configurations to enable LSCache and get it working with your Drupal 7 site(s). +
- +
- +
-===== Server Level Settings ===== +
- +
-From the LSWS WebAdmin Console navigate to **Server ​>> Cache**. +
- +
-Under **Cache Storage Settings**, set **Storage path** to the directory you want to use to store cached objects. +
- +
-For example: +
- +
-    Storage Path: /​tmp/​diskcache +
- +
-It is recommended that this directory be on a dedicated disk or disk array in RAID 0 configuration. +
- +
-Under **Cache Policy**, we recommend using the following settings: +
- +
-    Enable Cache:No +
-    Cache Request with Query String:​Yes ​        +
-    Cache Request with Cookie:​Yes +
-    Cache Response with Cookie:​Yes ​        +
-    Ignore Request Cache-Control:​Yes +
-    Ignore Response Cache-Control:​Yes +
-    Enable Private Cache: No +
- +
-**Note:** **Enable Cache** has been set to “No” globally as caching will instead be enabled through the use of rewrite rules to control what pages will be cached and for how long. +
- +
-===== Website Level Settings ===== +
- +
-At the top of your .htaccess file, located in the document root of your website, add the following:​ +
- +
-  ########## Begin - Litespeed cache +
-  <​IfModule LiteSpeed>​ +
-    CacheEnable public +
-    RewriteEngine On   +
-    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_METHOD} ^GET|HEAD|PURGE$ +
-    RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^your_domain_name.com [NC] +
-    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !admin|register|login [NC] +
-    RewriteCond %{HTTP_COOKIE} !SESS [NC] +
-    RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} !nocache +
-    RewriteRule .* - [E=Cache-Control:​max-age=120] +
-  </​IfModule>​ +
-  ########## End - Litespeed cache +
-   +
-Where "​your_domain_name.com"​ is the web address of your Drupal 7 site.   +
- +
-We recommend using a different domain for your backend so that you can add/​edit/​preview a website'​s content through the admin domain without worrying about these changes being cached and seen by visitors. +
- +
-To get the non-cached version of a page, add the "​nocache"​ query string to a URL. +
- +
-For example +
- +
-  ​https://www.your_domain_name.com/about?​nocache +
-  https://www.your_domain_name.com/about?​some_other_query_string&​nocache +
- +
-===== Discussion ===== +
-__**Adding a cron job to delete outdated cache files**__ +
- +
-While optional, it is a good idea to clear out old cache files that are past the set **Time To Live (TTL)**. To do this enter the following in /​etc/​crontab +
- +
-  /10 * * * * root find /​tmp/​diskcache -type f -mmin +8 -delete 2>/​dev/​null +
- +
-**Note:** This cron job deletes cached files that are more than 8 minutes old every 10 minutes. Since the cache TTL is set at 120 seconds (2 minutes), it is safe to delete these files that are way passed TTL.+
