LiteSpeed Docker Container

Install a PrestaShop container with LiteSpeed stable version based on Ubuntu 20.04 Linux.

Prerequisites

1. Install Docker
2. Install Docker Compose

Configuration

Edit the .env file to update the demo site domain, default MySQL user, and password. Feel free to check Docker hub Tag page if you want to update default litespeed and php versions.

Installation

Clone this repository or copy the files from this repository into a new folder:

git clone https://github.com/Code-Egg/lsws-prestashop-docker-env.git

Open a terminal, cd to the folder in which docker-compose.yml is saved, and run:

docker-compose up

Note: If you wish to run a single web server container, please see the usage method here.

• data stores the MySQL database

• logs contains all of the web server logs and virtual host access logs

• lsws contains all web server configuration files

• sites contains the document roots (the WordPress application will install here)

Usage

Starting a Container

Start the container with the up or start methods:

docker-compose up

You can run with daemon mode, like so:

docker-compose up -d

The container is now built and running.

Note: The container will auto-apply a 15-day trial license. Please contact LiteSpeed to extend the trial, or apply your own license, starting from $0.

Stopping a Container

docker-compose stop

Removing Containers

To stop and remove all containers, use the down command:

docker-compose down

Setting the WebAdmin Password

We strongly recommend you set your personal password right away.

bash bin/webadmin.sh my_password

Starting a Demo Site

After running the following command, you should be able to access the PrestaShop installation with the configured domain. By default the domain is http://localhost.

bash bin/demosite.sh -P

Creating a Domain and Virtual Host

bash bin/domain.sh [-A, --add] example.com

Please ignore SSL certificate warnings from the server. They happen if you haven't applied the certificate.

Deleting a Domain and Virtual Host

bash bin/domain.sh [-D, --del] example.com

Creating a Database

You can either automatically generate the user, password, and database names, or specify them. Use the following to auto generate:

bash bin/database.sh [-D, --domain] example.com

Use this command to specify your own names, substituting user_name, my_password, and database_name with your preferred values:

bash bin/database.sh [-D, --domain] example.com [-U, --user] USER_NAME [-P, --password] MY_PASS [-DB, --database] DATABASE_NAME

Installing a PrestaShop Site

To preconfigure the PrestaShop, run the database.sh script for your domain, before you use the following command to install PrestaShop:

./bin/appinstall.sh [-A, --app] prestashop [-D, --domain] example.com

Enable PrestaShop LSCache plugin cache settings

Enable the module by navigating to LiteSpeed Cache > Settings and setting Enable LiteSpeed Cache to Yes

Installing ACME

We need to run the ACME installation command the first time only. With email notification:

./bin/acme.sh [-I, --install] [-E, --email] EMAIL_ADDR

Without email notification:

./bin/acme.sh [-I, --install] [-NE, --no-email]

Applying a Let's Encrypt Certificate

Use the root domain in this command, and it will check for a certificate and automatically apply one with and without www:

./bin/acme.sh [-D, --domain] example.com

Updating Web Server

To upgrade the web server to latest stable version, run the following:

bash bin/webadmin.sh [-U, --upgrade]

Applying OWASP ModSecurity

Enable OWASP mod_secure on the web server:

bash bin/webadmin.sh [-M, --mod-secure] enable

Disable OWASP mod_secure on the web server:

bash bin/webadmin.sh [-M, --mod-secure] disable

Please ignore ModSecurity warnings from the server. They happen if some of the rules are not supported by the server.

Applying license to LSWS

Apply your license with command:

bash bin/webadmin.sh [-S, --serial] YOUR_SERIAL

Apply trial license to server with command:

bash bin/webadmin.sh [-S, --serial] TRIAL

Accessing the Database

After installation, you can use phpMinAdmin to access the database by visiting http://127.0.0.1:8080 or https://127.0.0.1:8443. The default username is root, and the password is the same as the one you supplied in the .env file.

Customization

If you want to customize the image by adding some packages, e.g. lsphp74-pspell, just extend it with a Dockerfile.

1. We can create a custom folder and a custom/Dockerfile file under the main project.
2. Add the following example code to Dockerfile under the custom folder

FROM litespeedtech/litespeed:latest
RUN apt-get update && apt-get install lsphp74-pspell

3. Add build: ./custom line under the "image: litespeedtech" of docker-composefile. So it will looks like this

  litespeed:
    image: litespeedtech/litespeed:${LSWS_VERSION}-${PHP_VERSION}
    build: ./custom

4. Build and start it with command:

docker-compose up --build
