Apache downloads php files instead of executing script when using cgi/fcgi in Virtualmin

Jack Huang System Admin Tuesday April 14th, 201523:28Apache, PHP, Virtualmin 3 Comments

Edit /etc/httpd/conf.d/php.conf

and replace these three lines:

<FilesMatch .php$>
SetHandler application/x-httpd-php
</FilesMatch>

with:

AddHandler php5-script .php

To make FCGId work comment out in global conf
/etc/apache2/mods-enabled/php7.0.conf
line SetHandler application/x-httpd-php like

#SetHandler application/x-httpd-php

To enable PHP for default site and prevent code displayed add section above into
/etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default.conf with uncommented SetHandler like:

…

#SetHandler application/x-httpd-php

issue following command to fix all sites:
sudo virtualmin fix-domain-permissions –all-domains –subservers
sudo virtualmin modify-web –mode fcgid –all-domains
