This plugin keeps creating “litespeed_conf.dat” file

    This file appears to be causing a variety of issues, as it prevents my website from being accessed by Page Insights, GTmetrix, and sitecheck.sucuri.net.

    I have identified this file in two locations:

    1. wp-content
    2. wp-content > litespeed > vpi

    In order for Page Insights to access my website, I have to delete this file.

    The file contains the following information:

    "hash": "9YgHWXNmQsPBe1kEZCsftKtPwXENC7w5",
"cache-login_cookie": "",
"debug": 0,
"debug-ips": ["localhost ip"],
"util-no_https_vary": false,
"guest_uas": ["Lighthouse", "GTmetrix", "Google", "Pingdom", "bot", "PTST", "HeadlessChrome"],
"guest_ips": [list of IPs]

    How can I prevent the Litespeed cache plugin from generating this file?

    Thank you.

    no , it’s not possible for such file that blocks PSI or something , it must be something else

    this file will be created if you enable object cache or guest mode.

    In my experience, this file gets created every time I tinker with the presets, rather than when I activate the object cache or guest mode.

    Regarding your initial response, I respectfully disagree. Page Insights, GTmetrix, and sitecheck.sucuri.net consistently face problems accessing my site as long as this file is hanging out in those two locations I mentioned. However, once I remove it, these services have no trouble doing their thing.

    This has happened not just once, twice, or thrice, but a total of four times. I’ll admit, I’m not exactly a tech whiz, so there might be some other factors at play here. I’m just sharing what I’ve observed in my case, where this file does seem to be causing hiccups for Page Insights, GTmetrix, and sitecheck.sucuri.net.

    Thank you.

    yes , once you enable these aforementioned options , this file gets created , you can try disable these 2 options , but not manually remove this file , and see what happens
