+====== Pre-requirement: Stop Nginx reverse proxy before LiteSpeed installation ======
+This wiki assumes that you have a working Apache-Plesk setup. Latest version of Plesk may config Nginx as a reverse proxy server that stands between the Internet and Apache, please turn off Nginx reverse proxy firstly to make Apache the only web server to handle live traffic before LSWS installation. Running Nginx reverse proxy will cause system errors and block LiteSpeed process being started.
+Steps to stop Nginx erverse proxy:
+Plesk Admin Console -> Server Management -> Tools and Settings -> Server Management -> Services Management -> Reverse Proxy Server (nginx), click stop button.
+Check, verify and make sure no nginx process is running:
+  ps -ef | grep nginx | grep master
+If you see the following output, Nginx has not been stopped yet and it has to be stopped before LiteSpeed installation.
+  root     16379     1  0 09:45 ?        00:00:00 nginx: master process /usr/sbin/nginx -c /etc/nginx/nginx.conf

 LSWS requires PHP built with LSAPI. There are a number of ways to get PHP with LSAPI.
-Many Plesk users may find it easiest to get PHP for LSWS through the [[http://rpms.famillecollet.com/|Remi Repository]]. Follow our [[litespeed_wiki:php:rpm|Installing LSPHP via RPM]] guide for these steps.
