phpinfo() returns text

[dpbabin]

I have installed Apache 2.2, php 5.2.5 and mysql 5. It is all working after some fits and starts, but my php pages appear funny. I had it installed once before and phpinfo returned a nicely formatted page. This is what I am getting below. I have searched on google but can't seem to find an answer. Any help would be appreciated. I also installed phpmyadmin and it works, but the pages show a whole lot of the same type of text.

Thanks Dave

I just tried to install joomla. The pages display different things every time I refresh. Some columns/fields are there one time, then not the next. The same for phpmysqladmin.

What does it look like if you do a "view source" on the phpinfo output in your browser?

[dpbabin]

Thanks for the quick reply. I did a lot of research last night and found a setting to add to my php.ini which gives me the formatted phpinfo page except for the very top which show this: the line I added was:
mime_magic.magicfile = "C:/php/extras/magic.mime"

Having said that joomla and phpmyadmin still look funny. Here are the lines on phpinfo at the top:

Here is the top part of looking at the source: it starts looking right at the header for PHP License.

It's weird, because it looks like it's outputting the HTTP headers directly to your browser display. I've never run into anything like that. If it were my computer, I'd probably uninstall and install again. :rolleyes:

[dpbabin]

You think everything or just PHP. It really is weird since my install of php was from the zip file from php.net.

[NogDog]

Looks like more of an Apache problem to me, but that's just a guess. Only other thing I can think of is maybe your Apache config is pointing to the CLI version of PHP instead of the SAPI module (or at least the CGI version).

Maybe you could search your httpd.conf file for all references to "php" and post them here?
