Friendly SEO URLs Troubleshooting

Let's start Troubleshooting of Friendly SEO URLs in Croster WHMCS Theme.

If you are using LiteSpeed server, you have to be aware that this type of servers require server restart after every change/added in SEO-Friendly URLs, which implement changes to the htaccess file, for example:

1. Activation of SEO-Friendly URLs from Croster Panel >> General Setting.
2. Edit/Delete SEO URL from Page Manager Pages.
3. Creation or deletion of pages from Page Manager.

This is one of the limitations of OpenLiteSpeed web server over the Enterprise website. OLS does not read or integrates the .htaccess changes done on the website. To make it read the web server requires are restart using root user. This can be done by following simple steps.

1. Log in to the root user of the OLS installed server.
2. Run the following command to restart OpenLiteSpeed Browser.

systemctl restart lsws

3. Check if OLS is running properly without any issues.

systemctl status lsws

4. After restarting OLS the changes done in .htaccess files in any website will start reflecting. However, this has to be done after every change in the .htaccess file. If you don’t want to restart the web server manually then you should consider upgrading to LiteSpeed Enterprise.
