(I'm currently using Firefox 124.01 on Ubuntu 22.04.03 LTS) (My formatting is also givinge problems... I want to eat my own eyeballs out right now...)
I'm very new to Linux, and trying to get PHP installed, but it won't render anything...
Following this guide (https://ubuntu.com/server/docs/programming-php), I started with:
sudo apt update
sudo apt install apache2
Test Page Success!
So I continue with:
sudo apt install php libapache2-mod-php
sudo apt install php-mysql
sudo apt install php-cgi
Then:
sudo systemctl restart apache2.service
I write the following in /var/www/html/index.php:
<?php
phpinfo();
Test Text1
?>
Test Text2
I see "Test Text2" and nothing else. I see my PHP tags and their contents upon source inspection.
Then I perform the following:
apt list --installed | grep php
sudo apt purge php
apt list --installed | grep php (0 Results)
And try again:
sudo apt install php libapache2-mod-php
sudo apt install php-mysql
sudo apt install php-cgi
sudo systemctl restart apache2.service
No luck... Any ideas what's going on?
A little additional info:
~$ which php
/usr/bin/php
~$ php -v
