Using AWS Application Load Balancer

Describe your issue as much as you can

I am trying to use the server-status module by apache, we are trialing apache monitoring software via New Relic, this monitoring requires this mod_status module running via apache.

I have been unable to successfully get this page working "server-status". at most it tells me "Forbidden" when I try to access "/server-status"

New relic client doesn't seem to support the Bitnami modified apache configuration as original folders moved etc by bitnami.

I am slightly unclear where I need to put the following information to enable "server-status"
The information below is it for the bitnami.conf file or the https.conf file? or under the .conf files under the "vhosts" directory.

<Location "/server-status">
SetHandler server-status
Require host example.com

But I suspect that I am missing something else?

Are you guys able to push me in the right direction to enable "server-status" for your wordpress images? or do you not recommend enabling this for security reasons?

We are also currently trailing this Wordpress setup behind an application load balancer, so the SSL termination is completed on the ALB, and only HTTP 80 is sent to wordpress, no certificate is installed on the VM. this seems to work ok, but I am getting a notice in the apache error logs below

Got error 'PHP message: PHP Warning: Undefined array key "HTTP_X_FORWARDED_PROTO" in /bitnami/wordpress/wp-config.php on line 103'.

this seems to be in reference to the following entry in the wp-config file
lines 103 and 104 are below

if (strpos($_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_PROTO'], 'https') !== false)
$_SERVER['HTTPS']='on';

Are you guys able to push me in the right direction, is something else not being declared?

This for your help as always.

As WordPress is set to work at the root path of your domain, all requests will be redirected to the application. If you want to redirect/manage those requests to /server-status differently, you will need to edit the wordpress and wordpress-https files under the vhosts directory.

There is an old guide here that explains how to configure this with the WordPress solution. However, paths were not updated with the new directory structure.

https://docs.bitnami.com/aws/how-to/configure-elb-ssl-aws/

/opt/bitnami/apps/APPNAME/conf/httpd-prefix.conf would be both wordpress and wordpress-https conf files under the vhosts folder and /opt/bitnami/apps/wordpress/htdocs/wp-config.php is at /opt/bitnami/wordpress/wp-config.php.
