After migrating my SMF 2.1.5 forum to a new host using LiteSpeed Web Server, users cannot see attached images in posts. The attachment icons appear, but clicking them gives a 404.

Could LiteSpeed be blocking the dynamic attachment PHP script (index.php?action=dlattach)? Has anyone experienced this and found a specific LiteSpeed configuration rule to fix it?

Hello, aiiwa233! Welcome to SMFHelper.  :peace

Personally, I haven't used Litespeed yet. So, maybe someone else may be able to help. :)

It's a 404, so my first suspicion would be paths...

Check paths & urls out in repair_settings.php.

Diagnosis utility might help.

I'm not familiar with Litespeed, but it's supposed to be a drop-in replacement, so my suspicion is it's not a factor.  Lots of users, no reported issues, on the smf site.
