How do I manually change to a new license key?

If you need to change to a new license key due to a license upgrade/downgrade and have difficulty updating it with our installer or control panel plugin, you can manually change the license key with the following steps:

 

For LiteSpeed Web Server:

Assuming that LSWS is installed to "/usr/local/lsws",

1. # cd /usr/local/lsws/conf

2. # mv serial.no serial.no.old

3. # mv license.key license.key.old

4. # echo "" > serial.no

5. # cd ../bin

6. # ./lshttpd -r

7. # ./lswsctrl restart

 

For LiteSpeed Web ADC:

Assuming that LSLB is installed to "/usr/local/lslb",

1. # cd /usr/local/lslb/conf

2. # mv serial.no serial.no.old

3. # mv license.key license.key.old

4. # echo "" > serial.no

5. # cd ../bin
