What could be the reason for PHP not being interpreted correctly on the webserver?

The reason for PHP not being interpreted correctly on the webserver could be due to missing PHP module installation or misconfiguration in the web server settings. To solve this issue, ensure that the PHP module is installed and properly configured in the web server configuration file.

<?php
// Ensure PHP module is installed and configured in the web server settings
// For Apache web server, make sure the following lines are present in the configuration file (e.g., httpd.conf or apache2.conf):
// LoadModule php_module modules/libphp.so
// AddHandler php-script .php
// AddType text/html .php
// And restart the web server after making changes
?>
