LSCache + LiteSpeed WebADC

This guide explains how to set up LiteSpeed WebADC to communicate with WordPress (or other web apps that use an LSCache plugin) via the following structure:

LiteSpeed WebADC (With Cache) > Back end web server > WordPress Application

  • Navigate to LSLB Web Admin Console→Server→Cache
    1. Set Storage Path to /home/lscache/

  • Navigate to LSLB Web Admin Console→Virtual Hosts→Cache
    1. Set Storage Path to /home/Litespeed443/lscache
    2. Set Check Public Cache to Yes

You can check if a page is being cached from WebADC by:

  1. Navigating to your site from a non-logged-in browser and using your browser's developer tools to check the response header.
  2. Enter the URL http://[Back_end_web_server_IP]/[wordpress-path] and check that there is no cache from response header.
  3. Enter the URL http://[Web_ADC_IP]/[wordpress-path]. Reload the page and look for X-LiteSpeed-Cache: hit in the response headers. If it's there, then the page is being served by the cache.
  4. Modify a post with the WordPress application, then press Ctrl+F5 to refresh http://[Web_ADC_IP]/[wordpress-path], you should see the updated posts.

To turn on the Web ADC Debug Log, you would follow the exact same steps that are laid-out here for LiteSpeed Web Server.
