server-status is accessed exactly every 5 minutes

    I am running Apache httpd 1.3 and Tomcat 4.1 with mod_jk on Mac OS X Server 10.3.9. Today I activated the "common" LogFormat in httpd.conf and restarted apache. Ever since then, I have seen the following line repeated every five minutes in the common log file:

    127.0.0.1 - - [30/Mar/2007:15:26:40 -0400] "GET /server-status HTTP/1.1" 404 287

    Is this something I should be concerned about? Any help is greatly appreciated.

    I should also mention that apache was initially returning code 200, but I disabled mod_status, so now it returns 404.

    Do you want to see the server stats which you arent able to see currently?

    Are you running something like big brother (bb) on your server? That checks every 5 mins and can be configured to read server-status for graphing etc.

    Thanks for your responses. I'm not aware of any server monitoring software on the server. How can I tell if Big Brother or a similar program is running?
