===== Cannot Find External Application: lsphpxx Error ===== Sometimes you may experience the following error after installation: 2015-06-23 14:29:56.297 ERROR [config:scripthandler] Can not find handler with type: 12, name: lsphpxx. 2015-06-23 14:29:56.297 ERROR [config:scripthandler] Can not find External Application: lsphpxx, type: lsapi 2015-06-23 14:29:56.297 ERROR [config:scripthandler] use static file handler for suffix [phpxx] It simply means that no ''lsphpxx'' external application has been set up yet. You should create an external app ''lsphpxx'' and point a relevant binary to it. ==== In a cPanel EA4 Environment ==== Most likely you won't see such an error since most of the PHP handlers have been preconfigured. If on some occasion a newer version of PHP, such as ''lsphp72'', is not included in the LSWS configuration, you can manually create an ''lsphp72'' external app and point it to the ''ea-php72-lsphp'' binary, or the CL ''php72'' binary when CloudLinux is used. ==== In an Old cPanel EA3 Environment ==== In a cPanel EA3 environment, LiteSpeed normally builds matching PHP for 5.4.x. most likely, hence no ''lsphp55'' or newer is installed. The message itself is absolutely safe to be ignored. If you just like to get rid of the error, you can do either of the following: * Install ''lsphp55'' and point the ''/usr/local/lsws/fcgi-bin/lsphp55'' to the newly installed binary. * Simply remove the ''lsphp55'' handler. * Use any exiting PHP handler as ''lsphp55'', for example: ln -sf /usr/local/lsws/fcgi-bin/lsphp5 /usr/local/lsws/fcgi-bin/lsphp55 This creates a symbolic link to use ''lsphp5'' as the ''lsphp55'' handler. Even though it can remove the error alert, it is not recommended because faked ''lsphp55'' may create a misunderstanding in the future.
