post your vhostsif it's downloading the PHP file it's either a caching issue in your browser, or it's because Apache isn't forwarding to PHP to process the file under some condition.

It could also be a cache problem. If at some time in the past you had Apache incorrectly configured andbrowsed to example.com, you would have been asked to download the file. If you don't clear your cache, every time you browse to example.com, the same will happen. I've had this problem before with PHP4 and Apache2 and no matter how many times I refreshed firefox, it still gave me the same dialogue. Clear cache, close firefox, open it again and see if that works. -----Original Message-----From: Alain Wolf [mailto:wolf@xxxxxx] Sent: 15 August 2006 06:45 PMTo: users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: [users@httpd] problem with apache and php files Scott Bowden wrote:I'm having some difficulty getting apache2 configured, and after doing quite a lot of googling, I'm pretty well stumped as to where to go. Let me preface this by saying that it's entirely possible I've done something very, very stupid. That said: I recently moved to a new server, and in the process upgraded to apache 2.0.54, having been running apache 1.3 for quite some time. I host around 6 or 7 different websites off this setup using vhosts. A few of these websites use php4. I seem to have gotten myself into the following situation: There are three sites: 1. example.com 2. www.example.com 3. test.example.com The first two are actually the same site. The third is a separate site. All three have "index.php" in their document root - though not the same 'index.php'. (1 and 2 share one, 3 has it's own, entirely other). PHP works perfectly on test.example.com. It also works perfectly on www.example.com. However, on example.com, every time I try to load up the root (ie. http://example.com/), Apache 2 attempts to let me (using FireFox) download the file, instead of parsing it. It gets stranger. If I go to http://example.com/index.php , it works perfectly. Only when going to the root (http://example.com) do I see this behavior. Every PHP file on the server works exactly as it should. Only if I load up the root is there a problem. Stranger still: if I choose to download the file, the transaction does not appear in any log files. It's as though it never happened. Nothing I try gets this to reproduce on www.example.com and test.example.com. Only on the bare example.com can I get this to occur. I've looked through my configs, and nothing jumps out at me. I've even switched the hosts around. I moved the config for test.example.com into the config file for example.com - no dice (the error occurred). I changed the example.com config so that it was now set (via the ServerName directive) to be test.example.com, and it worked flawlessly. In short, no matter which of the three configurations I use, they work flawlessly if their ServerName is anything other than 'example.com'. If their ServerName is 'example.com', every single one of them attempts to have the user download index.php if the user tries to load 'http://example.com/'. I'm fairly convinced this is not a PHP issue, because as I've said, 2 of the 3 sites work flawlessly - and in fact, all of them work flawlessly if they are not vhosts for 'example.com'. So, I'm left with this being an apache configuration issue.
