How to use OpenLitespeed?

[adaliszk]

For apache2 and nginx I know that I have to put my public code into /var/www/html but it doesn't seems working with openlitespeed. It seems after configuring itself it shuts down.

The issue is probably because I do not know how to use it properly. Where should I put my test code to get something on the output?

OpenLiteSpeed reads the location that is set in the OpenLiteSpeed server configuration /etc/litespeed/httpd_config.conf and furthermore in the virtualhost configuration /etc/litespeed/vhosts/Example/vhconf.conf. With this image that is in the /var/lib/litespeed/Example/html.

Coming up in the documentation.

Okay, I've tried to look the files but I didn't able to pinpoint the document root, I will do some research later about it.

[adaliszk]

Okay, so here is what I found out:
http://open.litespeedtech.com/mediawiki/index.php/Help:Repositories
http://open.litespeedtech.com/mediawiki/index.php/Help:Default_PHP_Settings

The example output port is :8088 and you can reach an administration site on :7080
default login is admin / 123456

From there you need to create your vhost and listener where in the vhost settings you need to set the document root in the General tab and add a lsphp script handler for php files on the Script Handler tab. After you done then your script should be running.

I created a sample configuration and if you override this files in the /etc/litespeed location the :80 port will be active and the /var/www/html will be the document root.

hello,

Hope you guys are doing well.

I need your assistance in setting up wordpress on litespeed server. I am running windows 10 pro, latest docker version and docker-compose. I have copied your Dockerfile-7.0-litespeed and tags folder into the separate directory in my computer drive and i run the docker command to build an image docker run --name openlitespeed -i -t -p 80:8088 -p 7080:7080 -d litespeed and it work, i can see the litespeed login page and now i m in the litespeed dashboard and i have no idea what to do next its very confusing do i have install the php again as i have done it with your provided dockerfile and what will be my root directory how can i access on computer drive and what about the mysql.

Please would really appreciate your help for understanding me all these things.

Thank you very much.

You don't have to reinstall php again, you can use the provided lsphp.

you need to create your `vhost´ and ´listener´ where in the vhost settings you need to set the document root in the ´General´ tab and add a ´lsphp´ script handler for php files on the ´Script Handler´ tab. After you done then your script should be running.

Alternatively you can download my provided configuration, copy it into the /etc/litespeed location and add your wordpress public root to the /var/www/html

I have used you @adaliszk suggested configuration with no success. Litespeed keeps restarting even with the default configuration. Maybe can you create an example repo with a working configuration using phpearth/php:7.2-litespeed ?

Sorry for the late answer @josenobile, I'll set up one in the morning ;)

[mhadaily]

I have same issue similar to @josenobile, no luck to get it to work .

[adaliszk]

@josenobile, @mhadaily, @aadi-khan sorry for disappearing. I've created some examples and a little guide on how to set up the OpenLiteSpeed here: https://github.com/adaliszk/phpearth-litespeed-examples

The old zip had an issue that the Application folder wasn't wrapped with the vhosts folder, so it failed to load it.
