I'm having problems installing openlitespeed 1.6.21-2 on ubuntu 18.04.
The latest version to install succesfully on ubuntu 18.04 is 1.6.18.

HI, I launched a fresh Ubuntu 18 server and was not able to reproduce it. Could you raise a ticket to us support@litespeedtech.com with this forum link appended?

Hi, today I started with a clean ubuntu 18.04 that I upgraded to 18.04.5 and I could install openlitespeed without any problem. There must be something in my original vm that caused this problem.

Thanks for pointing out that a clean install will work.
