Help to solve conflit between Litespeed guests cache + VBSEO

Hi!

The story was begun from an article about Apache + Varnish + vBulletin Guest Cache at vBulletin.com. I asked for the same thing about Litespeed + vBulletin Guest Cache at Litespeedtech.com. And we have the good solution for that: vBulletin Guest Cache with LiteSpeed - LiteSpeed Support Forums

But the issue here is there is a conflict between this solution with VBSEO. I think it comes from Rewrite rules. If I put Guest Cache's ReWriterutes before vbseo rules, VBSEO will not work, vice versa, Guest Cache will not work.

## select which pages to cache
RewriteCond %{HTTP_COOKIE} !bbimloggedin=yes
RewriteCond %{HTTP_COOKIE} !bbuserid=
RewriteCond %{HTTP_COOKIE} !bbpassword=
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_METHOD} ^HEAD|GET$
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} !s=[a-fA-F0-9]{32}
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} !product=vbnexus
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/(login|register|usercp|private|profile|cron|image) \.php$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/admincp
RewriteRule /(.*\.php)?$ - [L,E=Cache-Control:max-age=120]

### VBSEO
RewriteRule ^((urllist|sitemap_).*\.(xml|txt)(\.gz)?)$ vbseo_sitemap/vbseo_getsitemap.php?sitemap=$1 [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !(admincp/|modcp/|cron|vbseo_sitemap)
RewriteRule ^((archive/)?(.*\.php(/.*)?))$ vbseo.php [L,QSA]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !/(admincp|modcp|clientscript|cpstyles|images)/
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ vbseo.php [L,QSA]

Sorry, I post in wrong forum.
Could you please help me to VBSEO General Discussion forum?
Thank you.

Hello,

please try to change this line:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/(login|register|usercp|private|profile|cron|image) \.php$
to:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/(login|register|usercp|private|profile|cron|image| vbseo)\.php$

Thanks Oleg,

dihuta did this work for you ? without vbseo i tested litespeed cache + vB and nearly 721x times faster than apache Litespeed vBulletin index.php benchmarks - Part 1 - LiteSpeed Support Forums

Still not work.

Hello Dinh,

Please try this as well:

Find:

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/admincp
RewriteRule /(.*\.php)?$ - [L,E=Cache-Control:max-age=120]

Replace with:

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/(admincp|vbseo)/
RewriteRule ^(.*\.php)?$ - [L,E=Cache-Control:max-age=120]

dihuta vbseo also sets it's own cookie i believe so you need to add

RewriteCond %{HTTP_COOKIE} !vbseo_loggedin=yes

to

RewriteCond %{HTTP_COOKIE} !vbseo_loggedin=yes
RewriteCond %{HTTP_COOKIE} !bbimloggedin=yes
RewriteCond %{HTTP_COOKIE} !bbuserid=
RewriteCond %{HTTP_COOKIE} !bbpassword=
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_METHOD} ^HEAD|GET$
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} !s=[a-fA-F0-9]{32}
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} !product=vbnexus
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/(login|register|usercp|private|profile|cron|image) \.php$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/admincp
RewriteRule /(.*\.php)?$ - [L,E=Cache-Control:max-age=120]

Also there's some added spaces between

) \.php$

should be

)\.php$

It's seem to work now but pages may not cached. I can't find "X-LiteSpeed-Cache" in headers.

## select which pages to cache
RewriteCond %{HTTP_COOKIE} !vbseo_loggedin=yes
RewriteCond %{HTTP_COOKIE} !bbimloggedin=yes
RewriteCond %{HTTP_COOKIE} !bbuserid=
RewriteCond %{HTTP_COOKIE} !bbpassword=
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_METHOD} ^HEAD|GET$
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} !s=[a-fA-F0-9]{32}
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} !product=vbnexus
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/(login|register|usercp|private|profile|cron|image| vbseo)\.php$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/(admincp|vbseo)/
RewriteRule ^(.*\.php)?$ - [L,E=Cache-Control:max-age=120]

what version of litespeed 4.0.19 is only one with x-litespeed-cache header added

Litespeed, 4.0.19

None of those pages actually exist. That's why it is impossible to cache those pages. You are using mod_rewrite and you are trying to cache pages that are rewritten with mod_rewrite which is something impossible.

Interesting, I tried litespeed cache on wordpress 3.0.4 with permalinks enabled via mod_rewrite and wordpress pages get cached fine. I haven't tried it on vBSEO yet though.

So it should work with VBSEO.

did you make sure you are loading pages without any cookies attached to the page you are checking ? (use firebug and firebug cookie admin to remove all cookies from page before viewing) you also need to load the page more than once before checking as first page load won't be from cache.

Sure, also reset all Browser data and CPU Load also higher.
I can see cached files.
