Install from repository¶
The LiteSpeed repository allows you to easily install OpenLiteSpeed and PHP on a supported operating system.
Supported Operating Systems¶
OpenLiteSpeed supports current and non-EOL versions of the following Linux distributions:
- CentOS
* 8, 9, 10 - Debian 11, 12, 13
- Ubuntu 22, 24, 26
* Includes RedHat Enterprise Linux and derivatives, AlmaLinux, CloudLinux, Oracle Linux, RockyLinux, VzLinux, etc.
Note
We don't currently provide dedicated packages for Fedora, so the CentOS repository will be used instead. Most CentOS PHP packages are compatible with Fedora, but some may require you to compile them from source.
Install the LiteSpeed repository¶
sudo wget -O - https://repo.litespeed.sh | sudo bash
Install OpenLiteSpeed¶
sudo apt-get -y install openlitespeed
sudo yum install openlitespeed -y
Install LSPHP¶
This command will install lsphp84 and lsphp84-mysql into /usr/local/lsws/lsphp84/bin/lsphp:
sudo apt-get install lsphp84 lsphp84-common lsphp84-mysql
sudo yum install lsphp84 lsphp84-common lsphp84-mysqlnd
To get a list of the LSPHP packages and extensions available, you can run the following:
sudo apt-cache search lsphp
sudo yum search lsphp
Access the WebAdmin Console¶
The randomly generated WebAdmin Console password is stored in the /usr/local/lsws/adminpasswd file.
Run the following command to set the WebAdmin Console password, if needed:
sudo /usr/local/lsws/admin/misc/admpass.sh
To access the WebAdmin Console, visit port 7080 of your domain (for example, https://example.com:7080/) and log in using the password you just set.
