OpenliteSpeed and Litespeed Logging
Most logging is located within the following folder for system related logs.
/usr/local/lsws/logs
You'll find that the logs for websites may be located under this folder, but usually located within another directory defined by the virtual host configuration.
When looking at the system logs, you'll sometimes see an error like so
[STDERR] [UID:1006][4884] Reached max children process limit: 10, extra: 3, current: 13, busy: -1, please increase LSAPI_CHILDREN.The UID is the linux user id, so you can tell which site is producing this error.
