PHP Source Code is being shown up when opening PHP page in my localhost.

PHP Source Code is being shown up when opening PHP page in my localhost. This looks strange to me. I’m using using PHP 5.3.1 on Mac OS X Snow Leopard.

$ php --version
PHP 5.3.1 (cli) (built: Feb 28 2010 15:02:51) 
Copyright (c) 1997-2009 The PHP Group
Zend Engine v2.3.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2009 Zend Technologies

I’m running the default httpd webserver on my machine. The /etc/apache2/httpd.conf file has the following line to load php module:

LoadModule php5_module        libexec/apache2/libphp5.so

The httpd.conf file Syntax is OK.

$ httpd -t            
Syntax OK

am I missing something? Please suggest!

Thanks!

    You need to add AddType to your server config:

    AddType x-httpd-php .php

    This can be added to the httpd.conf file, or even in an .htaccess file.
