Apache HTTP Server Version 2.0
Apache HTTP Server Version 2.0
| Description: | Provides information on server activity and performance |
|---|---|
| Status: | Base |
| Module Identifier: | status_module |
| Source File: | mod_status.c |
The Status module allows a server administrator to find out how well their server is performing. A HTML page is presented that gives the current server statistics in an easily readable form. If required this page can be made to automatically refresh (given a compatible browser). Another page gives a simple machine-readable list of the current server state.
The details given are:
The lines marked "(*)" are only available if
ExtendedStatus
is On.
To enable status reports only for browsers from the foo.com
domain add this code to your httpd.conf
configuration file
<Location /server-status>
SetHandler server-status
Order Deny,Allow
Deny from all
Allow from .foo.com
</Location>
You can now access server statistics by using a Web browser
to access the page
http://your.server.name/server-status
You can get the status page to update itself automatically if
you have a browser that supports "refresh". Access the page
http://your.server.name/server-status?refresh=N to
refresh the page every N seconds.
A machine-readable version of the status file is available by
accessing the page
http://your.server.name/server-status?auto. This
is useful when automatically run, see the Perl program in the
/support directory of Apache,
log_server_status.
mod_status is
compiled into the server, its handler capability is available
in all configuration files, including
per-directory files (e.g.,
.htaccess). This may have security-related
ramifications for your site.
| Description: | Keep track of extended status information for each request |
