My PHP code is not getting executed and its source code is visible in the browser instead, what will be the reason,
Solution 1
This is because , you need to open your PHP code blocks with <?PHP and not just <?. Remember If you use the short form, you should go through all your PHP files and change it.
Solution 2
if you want to write php with code block <? then edit your
php.ini file
; Allow the <? tag. Otherwise, only <?php and <script> tags are recognized.
; NOTE: Using short tags should be avoided when developing applications or
; libraries that are meant for redistribution, or deployment on PHP
; servers which are not under your control, because short tags may not
; be supported on the target server. For portable, redistributable code,
; be sure not to use short tags.
short_open_tag = On
Solution 3
You may have to take a look at your NGINX/Apache configuration and make sure that the right modules are enabled for PHP / PHP-FPM .
