Monitorr, a free, self hosted, open source web page / application status monitor and dashboard.

[@AwesomeOpenSource]

I found thhhhhhhhhis nifty little site status monitor and thought I'd share it with you all. I hope you find it useful. IF you'd like to see more applications like this one with varying different capabilities, let me know in the comments. Best to you all!

[@DanCalloway]

Very nice. I'm going to see if I can set this up using Portainer which normally requires a docker-compose image rather than a simple docker image. But, I'll check it out. Thanks for the review. UPDATE: I have Monitorr up and running on my FerenOS Linux system. Thanks a bunch. Very easy to install and configure. Just what I was looking for.

[@AwesomeOpenSource]

Cool. Let me know how it goes. The thing I love about portainer is even if you use CLI to start something in docker, portainer picks it up.

Suggestion: when an app has not been updated/supported for over a year, put that information in the first paragraph of the show notes - and if you have a replacement mention that as well. I'm not necessarily thrown off by an app being "orphaned" but I would think others would be. And even for people like me, such information would be most useful.

[@AwesomeOpenSource]

Indeed, I show many applications, and I think Monitorr was one of my earliest, so it's an older video, and keeping all of them up to date is untenable. I will do my best to clean up some of the old videos soon.

[@Vogel42]

Latest commit on Monitorr's github repository was on July 2018. Is it hosted somewhere else or just outright abandoned?

[@Pi-Tutorials]

Thank you. Got this setup in literally 5 minutes on my unraid server.

[@AwesomeOpenSource]

Awesome! Glad it was fairly easy.

[@rs8188]

Thx! Very good) only🤫 can be ~4 minutes less;) 👍

[@rs8188]

Can't stop watching..(@_@)

[@franky12]

I would rather write a clear docker-compose file instead of tinkering on the command line with the over-long docker run command... 😉

[@AwesomeOpenSource]

I understand that.

[@tomasztomaszewski9826]

You could just do: "id brian" to get ID and GID

[@AwesomeOpenSource]

Yep. I'm learning there are such simpler ways as I go.

[@vmsman2001]

This is an awesome utility. Sadly, I have no clue how to get this running in QNAP Container Station. The UID/GID are pretty much obscured. It comes up and is pingable, but no way to access it. I pointed /app and /data and I can see data created there. Just no idea where to go from here. I don't have a Docker command line in Container Station. A workaround would be if I could create an LXC Ubuntu instance and hand build the app without Docker. I'd prefer that, but no instructions on how to build it from scratch.

[@AwesomeOpenSource]

From their github page here github.com/Monitorr/Monitorr it looks like you can just run it on a webserver. You need php 7.1, php curl, php pdo, sqlite, and php zip archive, but then you can run a simple lamp stack or something that to run it. Check out their Quick Start section.

[@manah_nirmana]

Hey man, Great stuff.. thanks for the Great Video... Just a question.. can we also keep the audit of when the application when down or came UP ??? or can we do some integration to get that data.. thanks

[@AwesomeOpenSource]

I don't know that Monitorr does this, but the one I use these days call Ciao does seem to keep some records of when things go down etc. You might check out that video and see if it meets your needs better. kzbin.info/www/bejne/aH6ZqoaimrGim5o

[@InfoSecDaddy]

Very nice, does it do sms alerting?

[@AwesomeOpenSource]

Monitor is really just the dashboard. No alerting that I found. If you’re interested in Alerting there’s a project called Ciao. I will have a video on it soon. It sends emails, not sure about SMS, but I’ll look.

[@AlaKernel]

Another practical video 😍👍 I suggest doing a video about Netbox .

[@AwesomeOpenSource]

I’ll take a look

[@neogrid9999]

Dude you really come up with cool solutions, your vids have really helped me out loads, hopefully you can maintain the effort it's appreciated.

[@AwesomeOpenSource]

Glad you are enjoying them. I have no plans to slow down.

[@neogrid9999]

@@AwesomeOpenSource Good to hear that I'm in the monkey see monkey do learning mode so your approach is really good for getting started which often is the challenge with linux

[@RCcola1987]

Hey tried to follow your instruction but after install, I only get a grey blank page. Even tried to load the registrar.php page and was able to create db and user but after that still cannot load any other page. In dev tools chrome says that the server is troughing a 500 error when loading the index page. Any advice? Devs are non-responsive.

[@AwesomeOpenSource]

No, but I have a different video on software called Chia, which is extremely similar in function and has a nice clean look and is still maintained as far as I can tell. I know you went through some effort to install this, but let me link you to my shownotes for Ciao, and you can see if it might work for you. shownotes.opensourceisawesome.com/ciao-a-self-hosted-site-status-monitor-with-email-notifications/ I hope that helps. I really like it as the notifications via email are great.

[@franky12]

Do you know an open source monitoring tool for monitoring mail servers? Something like mxtoolbox? With blacklist and DNS monitoring?

[@AwesomeOpenSource]

No, not off the top of my head, but I'll look around and see what I can find.

[@franky12]

@@AwesomeOpenSource Maybe also possible with Checkmk, Nagios, Zabbix

[@joeshmoe1962]

Nice video. Easy to follow. Any idea if it's supposed to run on a raspberry pi? It seems to install but doesn't run. Log shows: standard_init_linux.go:211: exec user process caused "exec format error"

[@AwesomeOpenSource]

I've not tried it on a pi. The build being used for the docker image may not be built for Arm (or at least for the Arm version of your Pi). That's usually the issue when I find something won't run on my Pis.

[@joeshmoe1962]

@@AwesomeOpenSource Thanks for the prompt reply! Yeah that's what I figured. Any suggestions on how to install this on a Pi? Preferably in a Docker container if possible. What if I create a PHP container?

[@AwesomeOpenSource]

@@joeshmoe1962 sorry, no. I don’t really know how to target a pi with a pho project. I would think it would just run, but apparently not.
