In reply to James. @James, First confirm that the mod_status module is enabled in your Apache configuration by running:

sudo a2enmod status

Next, add your IP address in Apache configuration file as shown.

<Location /server-status>
    SetHandler server-status
    Require ip your_ip_address
</Location>

Replace your_ip_address with the IP address from which you want to access the server status page. You can also use Require all granted to allow access from all IP addresses, but this is less secure. Restart the Apache service to apply the changes and access the page again.

Hey Luis, The first screenshot is the status page for Apache’s site -apache.org. For the guide, I was using a Ubuntu VM whose server status is illustrated in the last image.

Text on the bottom.

I managed to get the graphical display following instructions on https://github.com/Humbedooh/server-status

For Ubuntu:

First, you need to enable Lua module.

$ sudo a2enmod lua

Download server-status.lua from the Github link above and save it somewhere.

Then edit /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/status.conf and add somewhere (I added it just below “require local“)

LuaMapHandler ^/server-status$ /path/to/server-status.lua

Finally restart Apache.
