Linux – Issue getting httpd fullstatus to work on webserver on Apache 2.4

apache-2.2apache-2.4linuxweb-server

I have a webserver, and I am migrating it over to RHEL7 (httpd 2.2 -> 2.4). In our old server (2.2), we could do a httpd fullstatus, and it would show a lot of good information about apache on the server.

On the apache 2.4 server, I am having issues getting the fullstatus command to work. Here is a list of steps that I took (compiled from various guides around the internet) –

1.) – Checked if status_module is enabled. httpd -M | grep status returns status_module (shared).

2.) – Added the module into the httpd.conf – 

<IfModule mod_status.c>
    <Location "/server-status">
        SetHandler server-status
        Require host <my hostname>
        Order deny,allow
        Deny from all
        Allow from 127.0.0.1

    </Location>
</IfModule>

3.) – Created a conf file inside of conf.modules.d/ (with the same words as above) – 

<Location /server-status>
    SetHandler server-status
    Order deny,allow
    Deny from all
    Allow from 127.0.0.1
</Location>

I reloaded / restarted apache after doing all of those things, but I still has no luck in getting httpd fullstatus to work.

NOTE – I did both of these steps individually as well with no luck, which is why I put them together with the hope that it would work.

Do you guys have any ideas on what I should do for a next step?

Thanks.

EDIt – This is the current output whne I try to run httpd fullstatus – 

[username@hostname]# httpd fullstatus
    Usage: httpd [-D name] [-d directory] [-f file]
             [-C "directive"] [-c "directive"]
             [-k start|restart|graceful|graceful-stop|stop]
             [-v] [-V] [-h] [-l] [-L] [-t] [-T] [-S] [-X]

EDIT2 – When running apachectl fullstatus, I get a permission denied error – 

                               Forbidden

 You don't have permission to access /server-status on this server.

fullstatus is an option of the apachectl command, not of httpd. From the usage output, it sound like that is the problem here. Try

apachectl fullstatus
