MALP - Monitor A Linux Platform

A lightweight Ruby CGI status page for home server monitoring.

Install

Copy this repository directory to /var/www, so /var/www/malp/cgi-bin exists.

mkdir /var/www/malp/data
chown apache:apache /var/www/malp/data

If using SELinux (e.g. AlmaLinux)

chcon -R -t httpd_sys_script_exec_t /var/www/malp/cgi-bin
chcon -R -t httpd_sys_rw_content_t /var/www/malp/data

Example Apache HTTPD Setup

Here is my example setup. My server's name is anubis. Replace as desired.

Create self-signed TLS certificate

mkdir /etc/httpd/tls
cd /etc/httpd/tls
openssl ecparam -name secp384r1 -genkey -noout -out anubis.key
openssl req -new -x509 -key anubis.key -out anubis.crt -days 3650 -sha384

/etc/httpd/conf.d/anubis.conf

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerName anubis
    ServerAlias anubis

    # Permanent redirect to the same URI on HTTPS
    Redirect permanent / https://anubis/
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *:443>
    ServerName anubis
    DocumentRoot /var/www/html

    SSLEngine on

    SSLCertificateFile /etc/httpd/tls/anubis.crt
    SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/httpd/tls/anubis.key

    # Modern TLS Security (Recommended for ECDSA)
