OpenLiteSpeed version update for reCAPTCHA

[Shigaev.]

Hello! I'm newbie. I would like to upgrade OpenLiteSpeed from 1.4x to 1.5x inside my DO Droplet "OpenLiteSpeed Django by LiteSpeed Technologies VERSION 2.2.3 OS Ubuntu 18.04". I was attracted by the prospect of receiving a reCAPTCHA with 1.5x. Do I have to do this with the "apt-get install openlitespeed" SSH command or is this not enough to upgrade? What consequences should I expect for my settings and my WP site? Will the new settings appear in the Openlitespeed console?

Thx and don't laugh too loud))

Hi,

Please check here https://forum.openlitespeed.org/threads/is-there-upgrade-1-4-to-1-5-instruction.3857/#post-6734

Latest version from repository now is 1.4.50, so install/upgrade may not bring you to the version you are looking for.

Best

Through the RPM package upgrade to 1.5.6 is not available right now.
But you can download the pre-built package from our site and run the ./install.sh in it.
Please make a backup of your conf/ and admin/conf files before this upgrade.
Thanks.

... and then I get reCAPTCHA?
or is it still easier to use some kind of plugin for Wordpress in my case?

Yes I cheked it. But I have a 4th version, which does not have this functionality and does not have this section.: "Navigate to Configuration → Server → Security → reCAPTCHA Protection".

If you install openlitespeed 1.5.6, you should have `reCAPTCHA` setting in the webAdmin.
Other way, if you do not want to upgrade the web admin bu the binaries, you need to config `reCAPTCHA` by hand in the http_config.conf, it also can work.
