I had the same issue earlier this month.

Contact the host and they will enable ESI for you. In the same time you can ask them to enable crawler also so you can warm your cache.

My hosting support told me there is not way this can be done on account level and should be done for every domain.

This recommendation depends only on certain hosting providers. Most hosts have enabled ESI by default.

It seems that LiteSpeed has disabled ESI for Prestashop as ESI causes issues with the current PS version.

 

[webkaj]

So why we should purchase litespeed enterprice? we could just use openlitespeed as it's free and just has no esi support

LiteSpeed Enterprise is the web server, so it doesn't matter if you use LSWS or OLS. The problem is ESI if ESI is used with Prestashop as this CMS isn't really cache friendly.

So it's better to switch to openlitespeed for prestashop?

It depends on if you need ESI for PS. ESI is (was in the past) a good idea, but ESI causes other issues you don't want. The best solution would be using PS without ESI and using client side scripting instead, but for this better solution PrestaShop has to be changed to make it more page cache friendly.

Sorry, there is no solution that solves your problem and the problem of all other users that use PS with LiteSpeed LScache.
