Adding this code:
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php after
...
#AddEncoding x-compress .Z
#AddEncoding x-gzip .gz .tgz
#
# If the AddEncoding directives above are commented-out, then you
# probably should define those extensions to indicate media types:
#
AddType application/x-compress .Z
AddType application/x-gzip .gz .tgz
to C:\Apache24\bin\httpd.conf downloads all PHP pages on my system rather than render it.
Before then, the PHP pages were parsed as raw text.
Help needed!
There are two problems:
application/x-httpd-php is not a MIME type, but rather a handler. That means your directive must be AddHandler instead of AddType
application/x-httpd-php is not a valid handler. The handler must include the PHP version digits at the end of the string
Putting that altogether, assuming, say PHP version 7.2, what you want is
✅ AddHandler application/x-httpd-php72 .php instead of
add this at the bottom of your httpd.conf make sure you have php{version}apache{version}.dll in line 3 and directory of your php.
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php .php
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .html
LoadModule php7_module "c:/php7/php7apache2_4.dll"
PHPIniDir "c:/php7"
