CentOS 7 + PHP7 -- php not rendering in browser

I have a clean install of apache/httpd and php7.1.0 running on CentOS 7.

When I execute from the command line:

php -v

I get the expected response:

PHP 7.1.0 (cli) (built: Dec  1 2016 08:13:15) ( NTS )
Copyright (c) 1997-2016 The PHP Group
Zend Engine v3.1.0-dev, Copyright (c) 1998-2016 Zend Technologies

But when I try to hit my phpinfo.php page, all I get is... <?php phpinfo(); ?> literally outputted to the screen - can someone tell me what I'm missing, did I forget to enable a mod?

Solution

  • That means that PHP isn't enabled in Apache. PHP addresses that here - step 8 should solve your problem.

    As an addition: what I usually do on a new install, is install an entire LAMP-server. On Ubuntu, that's done with sudo apt-get install lamp-server^ (note: the caret is not a typo).
