[Solved] Litespeed completely obliterates my OS

#1
Standard works fine, but when I try using the x86-64 enterprise edition I get the following:

"/usr/local/lsws/admin/misc/rc-inst.sh: line 8: [: !=: unary operator expected"

Then when I try logging into SSH again, I can't. "Server unexpectedly closed the network connection".

I learned this for the first time around, so I re-installed the OS and tried installing again - not a surprise, the same thing happened.

So I did ls -l (the first putty that I used for the install still works, but when I disconnect I won't be able to get in again) and found this:

[root@host376645 lsws-4.0.18]# ls -l

I'm really confused. I am thankfully using the trial, because this problem would seriously piss me off if I paid for litespeed. This is on CentOS 5.5 x64.

Please help me figure out what the problem is ASAP! Thank you.

the affected binary is for linux version, if you download today between 4pm ~ 7pm EST. It does not affect earlier download. This was trying to address an issue for chroot environment, however introduced this error.
We'll put a new build later tonight after more thorough testing.

So is there a older download I can get right now that will work?
