Why do I see the PHP code and not the output of the script?

Question

I have installed Apache. Its working fine.

I have also PHP 5.2.1 installed.

I have enabled load module in http.conf also

I have also added following in mime.types

AddType application/x-httpd-php php
AddType application/x-httpd-php-source  phps

But Still I am .php page along with php code. It gets executed but also shows the php code same as written. What else configuration remaining?

Solutions: Add SetHandler in http.conf file

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

While you seem to have fixed it (as posted in other comments), I think I see your problem.

The AddType directive seems to like having a dot in the extension. Your posted configuration is missing them.

AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps

Have you installed php?

Or you can try other popular packages for basic web server functionality:

Did you make sure to restart Apache after making the config changes?

Also clear your browser's cache - this was the problem the last time I had this issue. I went so far as using another browser to make sure.
