php files saved/open rather than displayed

Debian Testing
Apache2
php4

I am attempting to install OSSIM on a server and I've had success up untill I try to acccess the OSSIM site on the server. When I attempt to view the page

https://sitename/ossim

I get the option to save/open the following "application/x-httpd-php".

I've had this problem once before but cant figure out what I did, and I've not worded my google search correctly in order to get a answer. I've copied my apache2.conf file below...

Maybe it's not a Apache problem, maybe I've not gotten php configured correctly....

Many thanks.


# Based upon the NCSA server configuration files originally by Rob McCool.
# Changed extensively for the Debian package by Daniel Stone <daniel@sfarc.net>
# and also by Thom May <thom@debian.org>.

# ServerRoot: The top of the directory tree under which the server's
# configuration, error, and log files are kept.
#
# NOTE! If you intend to place this on an NFS (or otherwise network)
# mounted filesystem then please read the LockFile documentation
# (available at <URL:

http://www.apache.org/docs/mod/core.html#lockfile>);

# you will save yourself a lot of trouble.

ServerRoot "/etc/apache2"

# The LockFile directive sets the path to the lockfile used when Apache
# is compiled with either USE_FCNTL_SERIALIZED_ACCEPT or
# USE_FLOCK_SERIALIZED_ACCEPT. This directive should normally be left at
# its default value. The main reason for changing it is if the logs
# directory is NFS mounted, since the lockfile MUST BE STORED ON A LOCAL
# DISK. The PID of the main server process is automatically appended to
# the filename.

LockFile /var/lock/apache2/accept.lock

# PidFile: The file in which the server should record its process
# identification number when it starts.

PidFile /var/run/apache2.pid

# Timeout: The number of seconds before receives and sends time out.

Timeout 300

# KeepAlive: Whether or not to allow persistent connections (more than
# one request per connection). Set to "Off" to deactivate.

KeepAlive On

# MaxKeepAliveRequests: The maximum number of requests to allow
# during a persistent connection. Set to 0 to allow an unlimited amount.
# We recommend you leave this number high, for maximum performance.

MaxKeepAliveRequests 100

# KeepAliveTimeout: Number of seconds to wait for the next request from the
# same client on the same connection.

Is mod_php enabled in any of /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/*.load or /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/*.conf ?

Thanks!

awreneau,

Your Apache logs may shed some light on this. Do you have any entries in your error log that show a problem parsing PHP?

Also, just to be thorough, have you restarted Apache since making changes to your conf files?

THanks for the input.

I'm not sure what was ultimatley wrong but I've since reloaded the packages and they are working now. I hate that because there is a good chance in the future this will happen again.

Thanks for all of your help!
