===== Install lsphp all packages for Plesk =====
**With the release of plesk lsphp binary packages in plesk offical repository, this solution is now deprecated.**

== Install lsphp through LiteSpeed Repository ==
For Apache, plesk-php52/plesk-php53/plesk-php54/plesk-php55/plesk-php56 have been installed by Plesk. You would then need to also install **lsphp52**,**lsphp53**,**lsphp54**,**lsphp55**,**lsphp56**,**lsphp70**for LSWS accordingly. A group installation command do them for you.

  yum groupinstall lsphp-all
or update all packages by running:
  yum groupupdate lsphp-all


LSPHP packages can also be installed separately one by one(refer [[litespeed_wiki:php:rpm#installing_php_from_the_litespeed_repository|this wiki]]) , though it is not recommended since it takes longer time for manual installation.

== Configure lsphp external apps == 

Plesk which supports multiple php normally use **php 5.6** as system default PHP. You should reconfigure **lsphp5** to point to the right binary. In LSWS's WebAdmin Console, under Configuration >> Server >> External App -> lsphp5  -> update the command to **"/usr/local/lsws/lsphp56/bin/lsphp"**.

Also you need to create all other version of lsphps. In LSWS's WebAdmin Console, under Configuration >> Server >> External App, in addition to the default lsphp5 application, create **lsphp52/lsphp53/lsphp54/lsphp55/lsphp56** , set socket addresses to be unique to others, usually same as app name and also set the **Command** field to the corresponding lsphp binary location. For example, "**/usr/local/lsws/lsphp5x/bin/lsphp**" (where x should be **2,3,4,5 or 6**). The rest of settings can be copied from lsphp5. If your plesk supports php 7, you should also create **"lsphp70"** external app the same way as above. 

If you prefer using the command line instead of the GUI tool, you can edit the LSWS configuration file (usually /usr/local/lsws/conf/httpd_config.xml) by adding the configuration settings ([[litespeed_wiki:plesk:php_guide:multi-php-config-lsphp-ls|refer here]]) to the <extProcessorList>… </extProcessorList> section.

Please refer [[litespeed_wiki:php:rpm|this wiki]] for default settings regarding how to create and configure external lsphp apps.

== Set handler for different suffixes ==
In LSWS Web Admin Console -> Configuration >> Server >> Script Handler, in addition to the default suffixes of **"php"** and **"php5"**, create the related suffixes **"php52"** **"php53"** **"php54"** **"php55"** **"php56"** with **Handler Type** LSAPI and **Handler Name** pointing to the newly created **lsphp52**,**lsphp53**,**lsphp53**,**lsphp54**,**lsphp55**,**lsphp56** External Apps accordingly. If your plesk supports php 7, you should also create suffix **"php70"** pointing to external app **"lsphp70"**. 

If you are a command line Guru and prefer to make the changes through the LSWS configuration file, simply edit the httpd_config.xml file (usually /usr/local/lsws/conf/httpd_config.xml) and add the configuration settings ([[litespeed_wiki:plesk:php_guide:multi-php-handlers|refer here]]) to your server side <scriptHandlerList>… </scriptHandlerList> section.

{{:litespeed_wiki:plesk:plesk-multi-php-handlers.png?700|}}

Gracefully restart LSWS to have these changes take effect.

If any suffixes are not properly set up, for example, **"php56"** is not set to handler **lsphp56**, then accounts using PHP 5.6 may still work from Apache but LiteSpeed will return "403 Forbidden" because the related PHP handler has not yet been set for LiteSpeed Web Server.
