Lighttpd2 monitoring with Netdata
Lighttpd2
is a work in progress version of open-source web server.
This module will monitor one or more Lighttpd2
servers, depending on your configuration.

Configuration
Edit the go.d/lighttpd2.conf
configuration file using edit-config
from the
Netdata config directory, which is typically at /etc/netdata
.
cd /etc/netdata # Replace this path with your Netdata config directory
sudo ./edit-config go.d/lighttpd2.conf
Needs only url
to server's server-status?format=plain
. Here is an example for 2 servers:
jobs:
- name: local
url: http://127.0.0.1/server-status?format=plain
- name: remote
url: http://203.0.113.10/server-status?format=plain
For all available options please see
module configuration file.
Troubleshooting
To troubleshoot issues with the lighttpd2
collector, run the go.d.plugin
with the debug option enabled. The output
should give you clues as to why the collector isn't working.
First, navigate to your plugins directory, usually at /usr/libexec/netdata/plugins.d/
. If that's not the case on your
system, open netdata.conf
and look for the setting plugins directory
. Once you're in the plugin's directory, switch
to the netdata
user.
cd /usr/libexec/netdata/plugins.d/
sudo -u netdata -s
You can now run the go.d.plugin
to debug the collector:
./go.d.plugin -d -m lighttpd2
