Index.php not being served

I am having problems processing index.php files when pointing to a directory. My test.php runs fine showing all the details of the PHP Version 5.2.12 installation.

The server is an Apache/2.2.11 (FreeBSD)

The serving page is from a virtual domain, which for all other purposes functions well.

The httpd.config file has the following defaults checked
index.html and index.html

==>
# DirectoryIndex: sets the file that Apache will serve if a directory
# is requested.
#
<IfModule mod_dir.c>
DirectoryIndex index.php index.html index.htm
</IfModule>
<==

Is there something else I am missing?


Even more troubling, when I put the index.php explicitly in the URL it does not serve or display the page

Thanks

On my server I use the 'DirectoryIndex' directive and make sure index.php is listed there. Then whenever you hit that directory it will search for 'index' files in the order they are listed in the DirectoryIndex directive. I change the order around depending on if a site will be mostly serving up .html files or .php or something else...

Here is an example snipped out of my Vhosts.conf file...

ServerPath /var/DocumentRoot /var/
DirectoryIndex index.php index.html index.cgi index.shtml index.htm index.pl
