Resolved How can I activate PHP-FPM status page?

[TuÄŸberkK]

Hello guys, some of my php-fpm proccesses are going crazy with cpu usage so I need the details of them. I figured to see that I need to reach the status page of PHP-FPM. But I couldn't manage that, I searched a lot.

PHP Settings --> Additional directives

pm.status_path=/status

Apache & nginx Settings --> Additional nginx directives

location ~ ^/status$ {
    allow 127.0.0.1;
    allow [yourip];
    deny all;
    fastcgi_split_path_info ^((?U).+\\.php)(/?.+)$;
    fastcgi_param PATH_INFO $fastcgi_path_info;
    fastcgi_pass "unix:///var/www/vhosts/system/[yourdomainname]/php-fpm.sock";
    # I write my domain name here: [yourdomainname]
    include /etc/nginx/fastcgi.conf;
}

After applying these code and running /status on the web site I get "File not found." error.

Hi,

If I understood correctly, you will see something like https://www.tecmint.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/View-PHP-FPM-Status-Page.png. Could you say how do you plan to interpret this in your case?



Do you interested only in one time data or how metrics are changed with time?

 

[TuÄŸberkK]

Yes, that is the status page but when status page run with "status?full" parameter it shows in detail which scripts are being used.

For example: https://i.stack.imgur.com/WFw1l.png

I am trying to do this because some of my php-fpm proccess are consuming a lot of CPU, so I want to figure that out. If you know any other alternative ways to achieve this, I can do that too.

Thank you for your answer.

There used to be a support article in the Knowledge Base on the PHP FPM status page (how to use it in Plesk), but I cannot find it any longer. Maybe Plesk staff can?

 

[TuÄŸberkK]

I cannot find that article either, I think it is removed somehow. How can I ask this to Plesk staff?

I really need this solution or smt else, my server's cpu is at %100 constantly and I cant figure out why.

KB article was restored, please try to apply it Plesk Help Center

@IgorG It can't be accessed with a normal Plesk user account.

Question
How to enable pm.status_path and ping.path directives in order to monitor each instance of PHP-FPM by nginx (native, plesk-php56-fpm, plesk-php70-fpm and etc.)?

Answer

1. Add required directives to [php-fpm-pool-settings] section in the /var/www/vhosts/system/example.com/conf/php.ini file.
   
   # cat /var/www/vhosts/system/example.com/conf/php.ini
   [php-fpm-pool-settings]
   pm.status_path = /status
   ping.path = /ping
   
   Note: if there is no such file, create a new one.
   
   
2. Apply the changes:
   
   # /usr/local/psa/bin/php_settings -u
   
   
3. Go to Domains > example.com > PHP Settings and set PHP to FPM application served by nginx
   
   
4. Go to Domains > example.com > Apache & nginx Settings and add the following directives under Additional nginx directives section :
   
   location ~ ^/(status|ping)$ {
   fastcgi_split_path_info ^((?U).+\\.php)(/?.+)$;
   fastcgi_param PATH_INFO $fastcgi_path_info;
   fastcgi_pass "unix:///var/www/vhosts/system/example.com/php-fpm.sock";
   include /etc/nginx/fastcgi.conf;
   }
   

Additional Information
Functionality to monitor PHP-FPM by apache is not implemented in Plesk at the moment.
