Apache Configuration

Redhat/CentOS

Add the following module to your /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf file.

LoadModule status_module /usr/lib64/httpd/modules/mod_status.so

<IfModule status_module>

ExtendedStatus On

<Location /server-status>

SetHandler server-status

Order deny,allow

Allow from all

</Location>

</IfModule>

After you make this update to the Apache conf file, restart Apache with sudo service httpd restart.

Ubuntu

Add the following module to your /etc/apache2/apache2.conf file.

LoadModule status_module libexec/apache2/mod_status.so

<IfModule status_module>

ExtendedStatus On

<Location /server-status>

SetHandler server-status

Order deny,allow

Allow from all

</Location>

</IfModule>

After you make this update to the Apache conf file, restart Apache with sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart

Log File Access

To monitor 2xx / 3xx / 4xx request count, the FortiMonitor Agent user needs to be able to read the server's Apache access log file and traverse the Apache log directory. It can be found at the following location, depending on your Linux distro:

• Debian / Ubuntu:/var/log/apache2/access.log

• RHEL / Red Hat / CentOS:/var/log/httpd/access_log

• FreeBSD: /var/log/httpd-access.log

Agent Configuration

The agent config file can be used to optionally override default Apache settings.

• server_status_url: Location of the Apache server status endpoint. Defaults to server-status, as in localhost/server-status

• apache_log_files: Log file containing your 2xx/3xx/4xx requests. Defaults are in the Log File Access section contained in this document. You can use comma-separated values for this setting.

• server_status_protocol: HTTP protocol to be used when accessing the server-status endpoint. Can be set to http or https and defaults to http

• server_status_port: Port to use if the status page is running on a non-standard port

• server_status_host: IP to use if Apache is not listening on localhost

/etc/fm-agent/fm_agent.cfg

[apache]

server_status_url = server-status

apache_log_files = /var/log/apache2/access.log,/var/log/apache2/access2.log

server_status_protocol = http

Control Panel Configuration

Apache monitoring is added to a server via the Monitoring Catalog. If you do not see Apache as a discovered resource, you may need to rebuild your Agent metadata. You can read about that here.
