The Apache Web server may publish its performance statistics to a special web page. The default URL is http://servername/server-status. LoadComplete can retrieve the published information and parse out the counter values from it.
To enable publishing of the server status, follow the steps below:
-
Open the apache configuration file at: <Apache>/conf/httpd.conf.
-
Search for the "mod_status" text or scroll down until you find a line containing:
LoadModule status_module modules/mod_status.soIf there is the "#" character in front of the line, the line is commented out, and consequently, the corresponding module is not loaded. Remove # to load the mod_status module.
-
Find the following section in the httpd.conf file:
# Allow server status reports generated by mod_status,
# with the URL of http://servername/server-status
# Change ".example.com" to match your domain to enable.
#
#<Location /server-status>
# SetHandler server-status
# Order deny,allow
# Deny from all
# Allow from .your_domain.com
#</Location>Uncomment the
Locationtags: remove the "#" characters in front of the lines that contain the location configuration from between "<Location /server-status>" to "</Location>", inclusive.This will make the server status accessible at location http://servername/server-status, access will be denied to everybody, but people connecting from the your_domain.com domain and any subdomain of your_domain.com.
-
Find and uncomment the following section of the httpd.conf file:
# ExtendedStatus controls whether Apache will generate "full" status
# information (ExtendedStatus On) or just basic information (ExtendedStatus
# Off) when the "server-status" handler is called. The default is Off.
#
ExtendedStatus OnThis will make Apache generate additional information, like CPU use and requests per second.
-
Save the changes and close the httpd.conf file.
-
Restart the Apache server.
