Hi, @iBrabus. Have you configured ngx_http_stub_status_module? You just need to add /basic_status location, see the example in the ngx_http_stub_status_module documentation.

yes i have configured, also putted in url in python.d/nginx.conf and tried to put it into go.d/nginx.conf

i need to know, should i need to manually enable python.d / go.d
should i need to provide paths for access_log / error_log etc.. there is no good exaplained instructions about it :(

and i'm thinking, is nginx charts/monitorins available for netdata without cloud / signed in ? because im not using it
