To install LiteSpeed on a cPanel server, you will need to have root access to the server. Here are the steps to follow:
- Log in to your server as the root user using SSH.
- Download the LiteSpeed installation script by running the following command:
wget https://download.litespeedtech.com/scripts/install.sh
- Make the installation script executable by running the following command:
chmod +x install.sh
- Run the installation script by running the following command:
./install.sh
The installation script will guide you through the installation process and prompt you for any necessary information, such as your license key and the port number for the LiteSpeed web server.
Once the installation is complete, you can access the LiteSpeed web admin console by visiting http://your-server-ip:7080 in a web browser. The default username and password for the web admin console are both “admin”.
You can use the web admin console to configure various settings for LiteSpeed, such as the PHP handler and the server’s performance settings. For more information about configuring LiteSpeed, please consult the LiteSpeed documentation.
