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-c --proxy-port 5678 --proxy-s --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.

1. Download the ols-proxy-docker-env repository:

   git clone https://github.com/litespeedtech/ols-proxy-docker-env
   cd ols-proxy-docker-env
   

2. Copy the example environment file:

   cp .env.example .env
   

3. Edit .env with your configuration values:

   OLS_IMAGE=litespeedtech/openlitespeed:latest
   BACKEND_IP=n8n
   BACKEND_PORT=5678
   DOMAIN=www.example.com
   PROXY_METHOD=context
   PROXY_SOCKET=true
   # HEADER_SET=RequestHeader set Origin "https://${DOMAIN}"
   ACME_EMAIL=admin@example.com
   

4. Start the proxy:

   docker compose up -d
