-Installing PHP with LiteSpeed SAPI from our repository is much faster and easier than compiling it yourself. If you are not used to compiling PHP you will likely find this method more comfortable. We currently maintain LiteSpeed PHP (LSPHP) for Debian 8 (Jessie), Debian 7 (Wheezy), Ubuntu 12 (Precise), Ubuntu 14 (Trusty) in this repository.
+For LSWS native and OpenLiteSpeed, Installing PHP with LiteSpeed SAPI from our repository is much faster and easier than compiling it yourself. If you are not used to compiling PHP you will likely find this method more comfortable. We currently maintain LiteSpeed PHP (LSPHP) for Debian 10 (Buster), Debian 9 (Stretch), Debian 8 (Jessie), Debian 7 (Wheezy), Ubuntu 12.04 (Precise Pangolin), Ubuntu 14.04 (Trusty Tahr), Ubuntu 16.04 (Xenial Xerus), Ubuntu 18.04 (Bionic Beaver) and Ubuntu 20.04 (Focal Fossa) in this repository. As the Debian/Ubuntu Operating Systems become EOL (End of Life) we will stop updating packages for those Operating Systems in this repository without notice.

 ===== Installation  =====
-  - Add the LiteSpeed Debian Repository with the following command: (You must have **wget** installed ) \\ \\  <code>wget -O - http://rpms.litespeedtech.com/debian/enable_lst_debain_repo.sh | bash</code>
+  - Add the LiteSpeed Debian Repository with the following command: (You must have **wget** installed ) \\ \\  <code>wget -O - http://rpms.litespeedtech.com/debian/enable_lst_debian_repo.sh | bash</code>
-  - Install LiteSpeed PHP with apt-get: \\ \\ <code>apt-get install lsphpXX (XX can be 54,55,56,70)</code>
+  - Install LiteSpeed PHP with apt-get: \\ \\ <code>apt-get install lsphpXX (XX can be 54,55,56,70,71,72,73,74)</code>
 To install other php packages for lsphpXX:
+Here is a list of packages that you can install: [[litespeed_wiki:php:apt:packages|LiteSpeed PHP Repository Packages]]
 For example:
-  apt-get install lsphp56-gd lsphp56-mysql lsphp56-mcrypt lsphp56-imap
+  apt-get install lsphp73 lsphp73-mysql lsphp73-pdo lsphp73-opcache
 Available packages can be checked using the following command:
-  apt-cache search lsphpXX (XX can be 54,55,56,70)
+  apt-cache search lsphpXX (XX can be 54,55,56,70,71,72,73,74)
-===== About enable_lst_debain_repo.sh =====
+==== What the Script Does ====
+When you run the ''enable_lst_debian_repo.sh'' script, it will automatically execute these lines of code:
+<code>
+echo "deb http://rpms.litespeedtech.com/debian/ demo main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/lst_debian_repo.list
+</code>
+This detects your OS Ubuntu/Debian distro (''demo'' in this example) and adds associated LiteSpeed Debian/Ubuntu Repository info to Debian's source list folder.
+<code>
+wget -O /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/lst_repo.gpg http://rpms.litespeedtech.com/debian/lst_repo.gpg
+</code>
+This fetches LiteSpeed Tech's GPG public key and adds it to APT's trusted key zone.
-This is the script run in step 1. It will do the following things:
-  * Add the LiteSpeed Debian Repository to Debian's source list folder
-<code>echo "deb http://rpms.litespeedtech.com/debian/ jessie main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/lst_debian_repo.list </code>
-  * Fetch LiteSpeed Tech's gpg public key and add it to APT's trusted key zone
-<code>wget -O /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/lst_debian_repo.gpg http://rpms.litespeedtech.com/debian/lst_debian_repo.gpg </code>
-  * Update the APT package list
 <code>apt-get update</code>
+This updates the APT package list. Packages installed from the LiteSpeed repository with the ''apt-get'' command will automatically authenticate the GPG signature of the repository.
+**REMEMBER**: You do not need to execute these steps yourself! The ''enable_lst_debian_repo.sh'' script does it for you!
-When packages are installed from the LiteSpeed repository with the apt-get command, the gpg signature of the repository will now be automatically authenticated.
 ===== Notes =====
   * LiteSpeed PHP XX will be installed to ''/usr/local/lsws/lsphpXX''. This is not the usual directory LSWS checks for PHP so we will need to direct LSWS to this directory after installation. \\ \\  To do this, open the WebAdmin Console and navigate to Configuration >> Server >> External App and click "Edit" next to the "LSAPI App" Type. Change the path in the **Command** field to ''/usr/local/lsws/lsphpXX/bin/lsphp'' and click "Save" at the top right. LSWS should now be using the newly installed lsphp binary.
   * A "php.ini" file will have been installed to ''/usr/local/lsws/lsphpXX/etc/php.ini''. You may modify and otherwise tailor this file to suit your needs.
+  * Packages in the apt repo are usually only built for Long Term Support (LTS) releases due to the fact that regular releases have too short of a life span before End of Life (EOL). In most cases, non-LTS releases will still work with packages from the prior LTS release.
+  * For opcache module, you won't find separate packages such as lsphp5x-opcache, but it has been included in the main package. The module location is /usr/local/lsws/lsphp55/lib/php/20121212/opcache.so.  By default, it is not enabled in php.ini. You should modify the main php.ini such as /usr/local/lsws/lsphp55/etc/php.ini by adding the following:
+  zend_extension=opcache.so
+  opcache.enable=1
