Ubuntu users in Ontario, Canada?

I re-edited the /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/dir.conf file and saved it, then I opened a terminal window (Alt + F2) and tried to restart Apache.

No success. Here is the result:

root at Dell1:~# /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
 * Restarting web server apache2
Syntax error on line 4 of /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/dir.conf:
Invalid command 'index.php', perhaps misspelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration
[fail]
root at Dell1:~# 

Then I tried to force it.....

root at Dell1:~# /etc/init.d/apache2 force-reload
Syntax error on line 4 of /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/dir.conf:
Invalid command 'index.php', perhaps misspelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration
   ...fail!
root at Dell1:~# 

I don't have any such files named php5.conf and php5.load in /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/. Nothing there even starts with php.

This is what my /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/dir.conf file looks like:

<IfModule mod_dir.c>

          DirectoryIndex index.html index.htm index.shtml index.cgi
index.php index.php3 index.pl index.xhtml

</IfModule>


So I edited out the index.php phrase to make it look like this:

<IfModule mod_dir.c>

          DirectoryIndex index.html index.htm index.shtml index.cgi index.php3 index.pl index.xhtml

</IfModule>

I then opened a terminal window again and tried to restart Apache.
This time it did start but with some errors I don't understand.

Here is the result:

root at Dell1:~# /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
 * Restarting web server apache2
apache2: apr_sockaddr_info_get() failed for Dell1
apache2: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 127.0.0.1 for ServerName
httpd (no pid file) not running
apache2: apr_sockaddr_info_get() failed for Dell1
apache2: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 127.0.0.1 for ServerName
[ OK ]

Then I tried to force-reload apache, thinking maybe it didn't read some file change? Who knows!

Here is the result:

root at Dell1:~# /etc/init.d/apache2 force-reload
 * Reloading web server config apache2                                          13675
apache2: apr_sockaddr_info_get() failed for Dell1
apache2: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 127.0.0.1 for ServerName
[ OK ]
root at Dell1:~# 

I still don't understand the cause for the error messages.....but at least it's running like an old car that backfires and belches smoke.

I still cannot run the file test.php I placed in the root of my web domain:

http://georutkay.homelinux.org/test.php

Firefox pops up asking what to do with such a file, Open with Firefox or Save to disk?

So I assume that PHP is still royally (bleeped) up! Why? I don't get it.

This is the contents of the file test.php:

<?php
   echo phpinfo();
?>

I don't know if it's right or wrong.

At least Apache is running again, but I'm back to square one after all of that wheel-spinning.
