# Stub Status The module provides access to basic server status information. When [building from the source code](https://en.angie.software//angie/docs/installation/sourcebuild.md#sourcebuild), this module isn't built by default; it should be enabled with the `‑‑with‑http_stub_status_module` [build option](https://en.angie.software//angie/docs/installation/sourcebuild.md#configure). In packages and images from [our repos](https://en.angie.software//angie/docs/installation/index.md#install-packages), the module is included in the build. ## Configuration Example ```nginx location = /basic_status { stub_status; } ``` This configuration creates a simple web page with basic status information which may look as follows: ```console Active connections: 291 server accepts handled requests 16630948 16630948 31070465 Reading: 6 Writing: 179 Waiting: 106 ``` ## Directives ### stub_status | [Syntax](https://en.angie.software//angie/docs/configuration/configfile.md#configfile) | `stub_status`; | |------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|------------------| | Default | — | | [Context](https://en.angie.software//angie/docs/configuration/configfile.md#configfile) | server, location | The status information will be accessible from the surrounding location. ## Data The following status information is provided: ### `Active connections` The current number of active client connections including Waiting connections. ### `accepts` The total number of accepted client connections. ### `handled` The total number of handled connections. Generally, the parameter value is the same as accepts unless some resource limits have been reached (for example, the [worker_connections](https://en.angie.software//angie/docs/configuration/modules/core.md#worker-connections) limit). ### `requests` The total number of client requests. ### `Reading` The current number of connections where Angie is reading the request header. ### `Writing` The current number of connections where Angie is writing the response back to the client. ### `Waiting` The current number of idle client connections waiting for a request. ## Built-in Variables ### `$connections_active` Same as the Active connections value. ### `$connections_reading` Same as the Reading value. ### `$connections_writing` Same as the Writing value. ### `$connections_waiting` Same as the Waiting value.
