@Caramboo,

1. If a blank proxy setting does not work, I do not know what is wrong. If you use a Wordpress cache, maybe it needs to be reset?
2. According to the documentation, mcrypt is not really required. But if you must solve it, recompile PHP5 with the addition of –with-mcrypt.
“When using the “cookie” authentication method, the mcrypt extension is strongly suggested for most users and is required for 64–bit machines. Not using mcrypt will cause phpMyAdmin to load pages significantly slower.”

Hey

I have all this running on my Dreamhost PS. Thanks a lot. I just have two small issues that I can’t solve and I wondered if you could point me in the right direction.

1. Google Docs. I was using the Inline Google Docs plugin to import a few things into my Wordpress install. Since moving to Litespeed it’s stopped working. I suspect it’s something to do with my Litespeed running on port 8080 and that’s confusing the hell out of something but I don’t know what. The plugin has an option to input proxy settings but I have tried many combinations of localhost/80, localhost/8080 IP/80 IP/8080 etc etc but with no luck. Any ideas?

2. Mcrypt. I’ve installed my own phpmyadmin running on its own sub-domain. All works well apart from when I get to the login screen I’m told that “Cannot load mcrypt extension”. I see you too set up your own phpmyadmin so did you come across this issue and solve it?

None of the above are desperate problems but you know, it’s fun to solve things

I want to know where you live so I can leech off your wireless router.

@Dida,

The phplsapi at the server level will work for all vhosts.

@Dida,

lsphp is php4, which accounts for the size difference

I setup all my vhosts using Virtual Host Templates. So i created a template for each user and add their vhosts to the template. Since each template has its own server settings (External App/phpLsapi), is there a way to generalize them, using one in the LiteSpeed’s Server configuration / External App ? If not, should i set each template with the same the values you mentioned above?

Thanks!

Thanks for the great post!

I’m curious about the size differences between lsphp and lsphp5 in $SERVER_ROOT/fcgi-bin/ folder. Mine is 2M and 20MB respectively. Is it normal? Or it’s because i compile it with unoptimized compile options?

@peter

Undo the following line and reboot your server to move your site back to Dreamhost’s configuration:
“If it works, we move on to Dreamhost’s control panel to finalize the configuration. In the Domains “Mongrel and Proxy” page, proxy your entire domain to port 8088.”

@Bill,

Hi, Litespeed 32-bit is able to run on 64-bit servers if the servers have ia32 32-bit extensions installed, but I’m not sure whether Dreamhost has them. Check: http://www.linux.com/feature/142075
