<p>This perl script is designed to be run at a frequent interval by
something like cron. It connects to the server and downloads the status
information. It reformats the information to a single line and logs it to
a file. Adjust the variables at the top of the script to specify the
location of the resulting logfile. <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_status.html">mod_status</a></code> will
need to be loaded and configured in order for this script to do its
job.</p>

<div class="section">
<h2 id="configure">Usage <a title="Permanent link" href="#configure" class="permalink">¶</a></h2>
<p>The script contains the following section.</p>
<pre class="prettyprint lang-perl">my $wherelog = "/usr/local/apache2/logs/"; # Logs will be like "/usr/local/apache2/logs/19960312"
my $server = "localhost"; # Name of server, could be "www.foo.com"
my $port = "80"; # Port on server
my $request = "/server-status/?auto"; # Request to send</pre>
<p>You'll need to ensure that these variables have the correct values,
and you'll need to have the <code>/server-status</code> handler
configured at the location specified, and the specified log location
needs to be writable by the user which will run the script.</p>
<p>Run the script periodically via cron to produce a daily log file,
which can then be used for statistical analysis.</p>
