Re: [PHP-INSTALL] Browser tries to download php file

The httpd.conf file is in /usr/local/apache/conf

Im using Apache 1.3 because that's what I had loaded on this
originally with mod_perl.. I was most familiar with setting up Apache
1.3/mod_perl with the helpdesk application we use here. So I was
making it easier on myself.. Or so I thought.

The apache logs are showing on startup:

 Apache/1.3.41 (Unix) PHP/5.2.5 mod_perl/1.30 configured -- resuming
normal operations

The httpd -l (Im typing out full path to /usr/local/apache/bin/httpd)
is showing the two modules loaded:

/usr/local/apache/bin/httpd -l
Compiled-in modules:
  ...

  mod_perl.c
  mod_php5.c

And my httpd.conf file (/usr/local/apache/conf) has these entries
under mod_mime:

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

        AddHandler application/x-httpd-php .php

But still. My browser still tries to download the php file when I try
to view it.  I just tried re-compiling PHP just in case... No change.
Im at a total loss!  Let me know if there's any other info I can give.
