    apache wont run php.. squeeze.. help?

    Hello,

    I have been trying to run some php files for a website i am currently building, but it seems that apache does not allow me to access them.. every time i try to access them i get a forbidden warning and it shows a new window in order to download the file..

    at first i though it was a permissions problem so i did chmod og+wx [filename] to the files i needed to run.. but after that i still could not run the php files..

    also, i have linked my files to the /var/www/ location but when i go to localhost on my browser i cant see those files, although they are allowed to be executed and read..

    also i have removed phpmyadmin, because i read here ([http : // bugs . debian. org / cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=53666]) that the lighthttpd.conf causes problem on running php files.. but still no luck..

    libapache2-mod-php5 is installed.. and i tried to run the info.php, but it seems that PHP does not run at all, i still get a 403 forbidden warning and apache says that i have no permission to access that file.... :S but the permissions are there.. i did chmod og+wx info.php, just in case, but still it didnt work.. i got a window and i had to download the file.. again.. :P

    also, i can not find the php.conf or the php.load files..

    finally, the httpd.conf is empty and i was also told that it is supposed to be empty because debian uses apache2.conf..

    I really dont know what the problem is.. Could you guys pls help me?

    Thanks in advance.

    Is php5 enabled on the system? Run the commands below and see if they help.
    Code:
    a2enmod php5
