Apache

Host

To configure this check for an Agent running on a host:

Metric collection

1. Edit the apache.d/conf.yaml file in the conf.d/ folder at the root of your Agent’s configuration directory to start collecting your Apache metrics. See the sample apache.d/conf.yaml for all available configuration options.

   init_config:
   
   instances:
    ## @param apache_status_url - string - required
    ## Status url of your Apache server.
    #
    - apache_status_url: http://localhost/server-status?auto

2. Restart the Agent.

Log collection

Available for Agent versions >6.0

1. Collecting logs is disabled by default in the Datadog Agent, you need to enable it in datadog.yaml:

   logs_enabled: true

2. Add this configuration block to your apache.d/conf.yaml file to start collecting your Apache Logs:

   logs:
    - type: file
      path: /var/log/apache2/access.log
      source: apache
      service: apache
   
    - type: file
      path: /var/log/apache2/error.log
      source: apache
      service: apache

   Change the path and service parameter values and configure them for your environment. See the sample apache.d/conf.yaml for all available configuration options.

3. Restart the Agent.
