How to Trial a 1-Worker License

By default, the trial license is for two workers. If you'd prefer to test with a one worker license, you can limit LiteSpeed Web Server to use only a single worker, even on a higher tier license.

In order to limit the workers to one, you need to set up two listeners. From the WebAdmin Console, which you can access via https://SERVER_IP:7080, navigate to Configuration → Listener.

Set the following:

  • Listener name: 80, HTTP, or any other name that is convenient.
  • IP Address: ANY, or [ANY]IPv6 if your server has IPv6 connectivity.
  • Port: 80.
  • Binding: only check Process 1.
  • Secure: NO.

All other options can be left as the default or empty.

Set the following:

  • Listener name: 443, HTTPS, or any other name that is convenient.
  • IP Address: ANY, or [ANY]IPv6 if your server has IPv6 connectivity.
  • Port: 443.
  • Binding: only check Process 1.
  • Secure: Yes.

All other options can be left as the default or empty.

If you are using any Apache-based environment like cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, CyberPanel, etc., no further steps are required.

If you are using a LiteSpeed Native environment, you will also need to map the domain to a Virtual Host in both Listeners, and set up SSL in the HTTPS listener.
