n8n¶

Set up OpenLiteSpeed proxy with AutoSSL¶

The easiest way to install OpenLiteSpeed, configure it as a reverse proxy, and enable AutoSSL is to use the ols1clk script.

Before continuing, ensure that your domain points to the server.

Replace www.example.com with your domain name, and run the following command:

bash <(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/litespeedtech/ols1clk/master/ols1clk.sh) --proxy-r --proxy-port 5678 --autocert --sitedomain www.example.com

This command automatically:

• Installs OpenLiteSpeed.
• Configures the Example virtual host as a reverse proxy.
• Applies your domain to the listener virtual host mapping.
• Requests and installs SSL certificates using ACME.

Verify the proxy configuration¶

Open https://www.example.com in a browser. The n8n interface should load through OpenLiteSpeed over HTTPS.

Optional settings¶

You can further enhance your site's security by enabling features such as:

• OWASP protection
• reCAPTCHA
• Per-client throttling
• Realm protection
• IP Allow/Deny

See the OpenLiteSpeed Security Guide for more information.
