To be able to use the apache service (httpd) we need to make the following configuration 

 enable status in the apache configuration file, it is necessary to create the file inside the conf.d path to access: 

 cd /etc/httpd/conf.d/

 vim /etc/httpd/conf.d/server-status.conf 

 Open it and add the following : 

 ExtendedStatus On

<Location "/server-status">

 SetHandler server-status

 Require valid-user

 AuthType Basic

 AuthName "Restricted Access"

 AuthUserFile /etc/httpd/.htpasswd

</Location> 

 assign a password: 

 sudo htpasswd -c /etc/httpd/.htpasswd admin 

 restart apache and verify that everything is correct:
