Can't get vhost working

[insightdes]

In OpenLiteSpeed admin, I have created a new vhost:

I copied vhconf.conf from /usr/local/lsws/conf/vhosts/Example.

I have restarted OpenLiteSpeed and opened www.litespeed.local:8088 in the browser, but it displays:

Congratulations
You have successfully installed the OpenLiteSpeed Web Server.
& more.

This content is not in the index.html file I created in /usr/local/lsws/docs/www.litespeed.local/html.

Help appreciated.

If you are using the webAdmin to config your site, please just follow the steps.
A Vhost need to be added to a listener so that it can be served.

I did follow the steps. And it doesn't work.

How do I add a vhost to a listener?

Hi @insightdes

Here's the wiki for VH, listener setup.

We probably need some screenshot from you to tell which step you missed

Welcome to join LiteSpeed Slack - openlitespeed channel for more information.

Best,

Thank you kindly Eric.

I've followed that article, but I receive an error when running the command:

> chown lsadm:lasadm lightspeed.local/conf
chown: invalid group: ‘lsadm:lasadm’

Help appreciated.

@insightdes,

It's probably due to you set the vhost root file/folder under the root user folder?

If this is a test server, do you mind to give this new auto virtual hosts setup script a try?
https://docs.litespeedtech.com/cloud/wordpress/#how-do-i-create-additional-virtual-hosts

If you have any listener already on the server, then login ssh console as root user,run following command to create a new virtual host for domain www.example.com

/bin/bash <( curl -sk https://raw.githubusercontent.com/litespeedtech/ls-cloud-image/master/Setup/vhsetup.sh ) -d www.example.com
