PHP Files not executing

Hi,
I install Webmin/Virtualmin on a Ubuntu server 10. All went smoothly with the install script.
I created a virtual server for a domain & tried to open a php file that that giving the follwoing error:

Forbidden
You don’t have permission to access /index.php on this server.

Any HTML file I can open without any problem. I can rememeber this was happen before when I install a fresh server few years ago, & i can’t remember how I solved this???

apache php5 mod is enabled.

Any Idea?

Kind regards
M

Howdy,

What output do you get if you run this two commands:

ls -la $HOME ls -l $HOME/public_html/index.php

You may have a permissions problem – if so, that should help identify what’s going on there.

ls -la $HOME

Thanks for the time

Hang on, i think Its something looks like “mod rewrite engine” problem!
because I have a .htaccess file under public_html with rewrite tags!
i deleted the file & insert a info.php file & that worked!

Thanks
