Openlitespeed in docker container ?

[wanah]

Hello,

I'm learning Docker at the moment, and am looking into getting litespeed working inside a docker container.

Adapting litespeed install from an nginx example, I need to run openlitespeed in the foreground and not like a deamon.

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/18861300/how-to-run-nginx-within-docker-container-without-halting

Is there a way to do this with openlitespeed ?

Thanks !

probably no.

there is no "daemon off" like option in openlitespeed or litespeed enterprise -- never heard of it so far.

regarding "daemon off" mode in nginx
http://nginx.org/en/docs/faq/daemon_master_process_off.html
so it's not for production env, should be very slow.
I don't think openlitespeed will support this mode in near future.

I've just checked up for apache and you can set it to run in the foreground too. It would be a shame if openlitespeed was the only webserver not compatible with docker.

 

[wanah]

It's only the parent process that needs to be in the foreground, maybe there is an option that can be specified when launching the parent process from command line.

Hello again, sorry to be instant, I'm trying to determine if I need to open a feature request for this or if I'm missing something.

Nginx
echo "daemon off;" >> /etc/nginx/nginx.conf
/usr/sbin/nginx -c /etc/nginx/nginx.conf

Apache
/usr/sbin/apache2 -D FOREGROUND -f /path/to/config/httpd.conf

Lighttpd
/usr/sbin/lighttpd -D -f /path/to/config/file

I've tried things like :
/usr/local/lsws/bin/lswsctrl -D

But the -D optin doesn't seem to exist, I'm wondering if there is a non documented developper mode or something to do this ?

 

[wanah]

I opened a feature request for this

http://openlitespeed.com/threads/a-...g-openlitespeed-in-lxc-docker-containers.310/

 

[lsmichael]

Answered the question there. Had to consult with the developers, though. Apparently, I wasn't the only one who didn't know about this. I'll try to work it into the documentation when I get a chance.

Cheers,

Thanks, can't wait to give this a go ! I'm going to finish the book I'm reading about Docker first though

Warning: fopen(/usr/local/lsws/admin/conf/htpasswd) [function.fopen]: failed to open stream: Permission denied in /usr/local/lsws/admin/html.open/classes/ows/CLIENT.php on line 127

It was a bug and has been fixed in the latest version.

Suggest to update to latest version.

Alternatively, just do the following:
chown -R lsadm:lsadm /usr/local/lsws/admin/conf
chmod -R 600 /usr/local/lsws/admin/conf

 

[roottoor]

Thank you for your reply.
I use latest version installed from official repo.

same error if i run
docker run -d -p 7080:7080 -p 8088:8088 masolit/openlitespeed /usr/local/lsws/bin/openlitespeed -d

 

[Pong]

the conf folder should have execute permission, while file can have read and write permission.

Add execute to conf folder and try.
chmod 700 /usr/local/lsws/admin/conf

bugs in repo will be fixed in next release

 

[roottoor]

It does not help

 

[roottoor]

somebody help.....

 

[Pong]

could not reproduce it.
There are a few ways to try.

1. Please try to change the folder /usr/local/lsws/admin/conf to 777 to see how it is going. Of cause it is not the right permission mask but at least providing hint to see if it is folder permission issue.
2. New release 1.3.12 came out. remove the old one completely and try the new one from LiteSpeed repo.

Let us know the result.

 

[roottoor]

does not help

Hi roottoor,

Could you provide a permissions view of /usr/local/lsws/admin/html.open/classes/ows/? That may be the directory that has a permissions issue.

Thanks,
Kevin

Did you try the new release 1.3.12 with fresh installation? ( you have to remove your existing one completely) Fresh install has been tested.

fresh install means
(1. back up you configure file
2. Yum remove openlitespeed (remove your old version)
3. rm -rf /usr/local/lsws
4. yum install openlitespeed (install the new version)

Not sure why your conf folder permission mask changed (/usr/local/lsws/admin/conf should have executable permission from the beginning. Fresh install should have the right permission mask. Your error message is simply a login failure since OpenLiteSpeed can not read your password file.
If some process did make such change, we need to find out.

 

[Pong]

also we could not reproduce your error in our lab. If the above fresh install doesn't work, please let us know the details how to reproduce it or give us your tmp root access.
