# Apache Template Config

The Apache http webserver template allows you to monitor your local Cacti
server's Apache server for performance KPI's

This template leverages the mod_status module in apache in order to pull the kpi
data to feed into the script

## CentOS/RedHat Specific Configuration

For Centos/Redhat implementations the config will look as follows

Place the below config in /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf

```console
LoadModule status_module modules/mod_status.so
ExtendedStatus On

<Location /server-status>
    SetHandler server-status
    Require local
</Location>
```

## Debian Specific Configuration

Enable the apache2 `status` module:

Place the below config into a new file (eg, 80-server-status.conf) within
`/etc/apache2/conf-available`

```console
ExtendedStatus On

<Location /server-status>
    SetHandler server-status
    Require local
</Location
```

Then use the following commands to enable the `status` module and new
configuration **Note**: You must restart the apache ( systemctl restart apache2)
for the config to take effect

```bash
a2enmod status
a2enconf 80-server-status.conf
```

**Note**: This configuration restricts the `/server-status` url to local access
only via the `Require local` directive
