Very simple server status page written in PHP that can run on **PHP 5.4+** - even on **shared webhosting**. Because why waste your money on another server (or host on a server that you might want to do maintenance on), when you can use cheap webhosting? And as a cherry on top - it works even without javascript!

## How do I install this thing?
Simply put the files on your server and access it from your browser. There will be a simple install dialog waiting for you.
If you prefer you can install manually by filling the info in config.php.template and renaming it to config.php.
As this **does not** run installation scripts you need to head to your install directory and run create-server-config.php and then delete it.
If you don't want to allow php to access your files or you have permission issues, use the following instructions.
### FOR IIS:
// Rename IISWebConfig to web.config
### FOR Apache and Nginx
// Rename ApacheHtaccess to .htaccess

### I noticed there is a new release. How do I update?
Updating server status is fairly straightforward. Simply copy over the new files (with exception of `install.php`). Please double check that `config.php` didn't change - if it did, you will need to update it accordingly. This is also pretty straightforward - copy over the old `define()` statements and fill out any new ones (this should be fairly easy as the names are usually pretty self explanatory). This should not be required in future as it is planned to move most settings to database.
Updating server status is fairly straightforward. Download your config.php from the server. Delete all files. Upload the new release with config.php you downloaded earlier. You need to manually run install scripts. For that head to your domain and run create-server-config.php deleting it afterwards.
If you don't want to allow php to access your files or you have permission issues, use the following instructions.
#### FOR IIS:
// Rename IISWebConfig to web.config
#### FOR Apache and Nginx
// Rename ApacheHtaccess to .htaccess
### Is there any way to do this automatically?
We are working on it but it is not yet included. Stay tuned!
### Can I somehow pull status info from Server status programatically?
Yes you can! As of [9f7e15f](https://github.com/Pryx/server-status/commit/9f7e15fcd1d900108cbb0b3cad4bdc5ecf8b741b) we added API to pull status data... And more APIs are coming! Results are encoded in JSON format which should be pretty easy to use in any common programming language.

### Why does this project exist?
It was written as a school project where we had to create a website. I went with this because I found the lack of good looking, easy to install and use status page rather weird. Therefore my goal (as stated above) was to create a simplistic status page that could run almost anywhere. The code is not the nicest or cleanest and it definitely doesn't have that many features, but hey, it works!
### I want feature XY!
### Feature Request
You can write an issue and I will try to take a look when I get some time *OR* you can actually make a fork as the code it GNU licensed. Pull requests are most welcome!
