I removed PHP 3 and PHPGroupware. I installed PHP4 from the Debian package,
then I was going to go the install one of the groupware software. After
installing PHP 4 I still can not call up a PHP file from the browser. All
the browser does is prompt to save the file. The PHP file looks like:
<html>
<head>
<title>PHP Test</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;
charset=ISO-8859-1">
</head>
<body>
<h1>PHP Test</h1>
<p>
<b>An Example of PHP in Action</b><br />
<?php echo "The Current Date and Time is: <br>";
echo date("g:i A l, F j Y.");?>
</p>
<h2>PHP Information</h2>
<p>
<?php phpinfo(); ?>
</p>
</body>
</html>
When I had PHP 3 installed, if this file had a .php3 extension it would run,
but it would only download if there was a .php extension. Now that I have
PHP 4 installed all that happens is the prompt for the download no matter
what the extension is. I am lost, any ideas?

I'm confused. phpgroupware is an active project. I see no reason why
they would require PHP 3. In fact, I doubt their regular install
routine even includes a distribution of PHP. Have you tried
downloading the latest version at their site[1]?
Are you using a special install that includes PHP for you?
I'd go with the latest stable from their own site. Uninstall PHP 3,
PHP 4, and the phpgroupware. Install PHP 4. Then install phpgroupware
that's available on their site.
By the way, for this genre of software, I prefer eGroupWare[2]. It
feels more mature and seems to have a lot more development and user
activity.
