Prerequisites

Before we begin, make sure that you have the following:

• A Fedora Server Latest installation
• Root access or a user account with sudo privileges

Step 1: Install Dependencies

First, we need to update the system and install necessary packages.

sudo dnf update
sudo dnf install make python3 python3-pip python3-devel gcc

Step 2: Install StatPing.ng

Now, we can proceed with installing StatPing.ng. This installation script will check the necessary dependencies and install the latest version of StatPing.ng.

curl -fsSL https://install.statping.com | sh

After the installation, you should see a message like this:

StatPing.ng was installed to /opt/statping

Step 3: Configure StatPing.ng

Next, we'll create a configuration file for StatPing.ng.

sudo nano /etc/statping-ng/config.yml

Replace the contents of this file with the following configuration:

server:
  port: 8080
  bind_address: 0.0.0.0
  secret: [your secret key]
  debug: false

plugins:
  default:
    type: http #replace this value if you want to check different services
    name: Default Web
    url: http://localhost
    path: /
    interval: 60
    timeout: 10
    retries: 3
    headers:
      User-Agent: StatPing.ng
    expected:
      response_code: 200
      response_time: 5000
      response_regex: null

Replace [your secret key] with a secret key that you generate.

Save and close the file.

Step 4: Start StatPing.ng

Finally, we'll start StatPing.ng.

sudo systemctl start statping-ng

You can verify that StatPing.ng is running by checking the status.

sudo systemctl status statping-ng

If everything is working correctly, you should see the following output:

Loaded: loaded (/etc/systemd/system/statping-ng.service; enabled; vendor preset: disabled)
