What causes PHP pages to consistently download instead of running normally

All php files on my website are prompting direct download instead of viewing the page.

So for example: going to mydomain.com/index.php in browser will direct download the index.php file.

All my files are completely naked to the public.

I'm not sure how this happened, how can i trouble shoot this?

I am using linux, centos, with cPanel. My htaccess file is empty.

linux php apache-2.2

    You probably don't have the php module loaded for Apache :

    Try the following command

    apachectl -M

    In the output you should see 

     php5_module (shared)

    If you don't: 1. make sure php is installed 2. It is enabled in the Apache configuration files:

    more /etc/httpd/conf.d/php.conf

<IfModule prefork.c>
  LoadModule php5_module modules/libphp5.so
</IfModule>

AddHandler php5-script .php
AddType text/html .php
DirectoryIndex index.php

    Since you are using CPanel you should be able to enable for your server through the CPanel configuration options.
