The code is

Code: 
ExtendedStatus On
<Location /httpd-status>
SetHandler server-status
</Location>

Look at http://ipaddress/httpd-status

You have to look at whatever Location is set to.

The code Rich-Boy posted will work too but you would look at http://ipaddress/server-status

However the default that is commented out is <Location /httpd-status>

So I believe you uncommented the code but the code really read <Location /httpd-status> and you are trying /server-status.

DA will support problems with DA only. The load problem and apache problem is NOT DA's problem. You would have that problem right now if DA was not even installed.

I suggest to owner that this server need to re-format and re-install because I dont know what else he put on it.

That is a very good suggestion and until that is done nobody is really going to be able to help. You have an untrusted server and should be taken offline immediately.
 
Does your email works ok? I found out by checking a dovecot problem that the load was in apache because of the webmail system.
 
yap

I realize that too when my server load high, I can't open webmail. if it finally open the display look so scramble.. i.e. no css / js file downloaded..

but after I stop the apache and start it up after all httpd child exited, the webmail works normally, I didn't have to trouble shoot dovecot
 
My case was something similar after updating dovecot, the service had problem and the load was on apache trying to open the webmail pages.
Did you update recently any service that has a web interface or it connects with apache?
 
nope, I never fixed thing that aint broken. :D
and I am pretty sure that user access thru httpd which caused it, now I'll tuning several httpd options and asking for additional memory

By your own admission top is broken. Who knows what else is. top is a very basic function and if does not work then I suspect a very big problem.

I would at least run chrootkit and rkhunter on it.
 
Check for loops in your httpd log... I've seen a lot of 404 loops for example... sending a 404 to a non existant page that causes another 404...
