I received a backed up wordpress site. I tried to deploy it on an Open Litespeed Webserver. But when I visit internal links I receive 404 error.

I tried flushing the permalinks, changed the .htaccess to 

RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^/index\.php$ - [L] 
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]

Based on this solution

I restarted the server but with no luck. I cannot find a way to make it work.

In LiteSpeed I have these settings also:

Rewrite Control -> Enable Rewrite : Yes Rewrite Rules:

RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT}  ^NameOfBadRobot
RewriteRule ^/nospider/         -   [F]

    It would be useful to know exactly "what" worked in this case, rather than linking to a page that contains a lot of varied information?! In short, if you are moving between `.htaccess` on both platforms (Apache vs LiteSpeed) then you wouldn't necessarily need to change the default WordPress directives. The guide you link to is primarily for migrating between `.htaccess` and server config directives. – MrWhite Jan 28 '20 at 18:24
