I have installed PHP, MySQL, Apache on CentOS 6, now I have restarted the Apache and mysql, to test PHP I have created a index.php on /var/www/html/test/ now once I go to localhost/test/index.php then it shows only PHP source code like this: enter image description here


From Gnouc comment, I understand that it is due to SELinux security layer.
To work with HTML directory i did this in my terminal, but still i have the same result:

[root@localhost www]# chcon -v --type=httpd_sys_content_t html
changing security context of `html`


Any idea?

  • If SELinux is enable, you should check if it allow cgi script to execute and make sure ownership of php file, and allow it executable.

If your SELinux config is ok, it seems that this error occured because server configuration.

If you have installed php, then make sure that it is loaded by apache and apache is associated with php handler.

LoadModule php5_module        modules/libphp5.so
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php

And you should check your .htaccess. It may have some configurations that overrided apache's config.

    @rakibtg: No, you should check that those lines is in your apache config and are not commented.

    Please note that on a CentOS 6 machine, systemctl restart httpd.service will return a "command not found." service httpd restart would be the correct means of restarting the httpd service.
