Work in progress, targeted for 5 October 2026.

System status report

From MoodleDocs

The system status report provides information on the status of the following:

  • Upgrade - whether an upgrade is recommended
  • Antivirus - whether an antivirus scanner is enabled
  • Router configuration - whether the site's URL router is correctly configured to handle routed requests
  • Cron running - whether the cron is running frequently
  • Tasks max fail delay - number of tasks failing
  • Ad hoc task queue - whether the ad hoc task queue is empty
  • Long running tasks - number of tasks have been running for longer than expected

The system status report may be viewed by admins and users with the capability View system status.

There is also a CLI status script. Please see MDL-47271 for details.

New feature
in Moodle 5.3!

Note: The core_environment check (displayed as ‘Environment’ on screen) is now moved from Site administration > Reports > System status to Site administration > Reports > Performance overview. Refer to Performance overview. The Status report itself also now loads immediately, with each check's result added to the page as that check finishes, rather than waiting until every check has completed before showing anything. This doesn't reduce the total time needed to run all checks, but the report becomes readable sooner.
