Apache PHP no longer working after upgrading to 19.10 from 19.04

  • 772

I updated my Ubuntu from 19.04 to 19.10. Now the Apache PHP is not working. All I get is the raw PHP code instead of the rendered PHP. How can I fix this?

php apache2 19.04 19.10

    upgraded the other day and found the same issue today when I went to start writing some PHP. My solution was this:

    sudo apt update; sudo apt remove php -y; sudo apt remove apache2 -y; sudo apt autoremove -y

    This will uninstall apache2 and php, then we need to reinstall:

    sudo apt install apache2 -y; sudo apt install php -y;

    Then you are going to need to enable php (this may be the only step you need to do)

    sudo a2enmod php7.x

    *Note X is for your version of PHP (As of my writing installing php will install 7.3). Also note that you may not need to uninstall apache2/php and then reinstall. This is how I did it before I enabled PHP again. Hope this helps.
