  • Nowadays we use [xampp](https://www.apachefriends.org/download.html) for quickest PHP setup on your localhost, might as well check this [windows php](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PUwRinHHTCo) tutorial. – InfiniteStack Aug 07 '22 at 20:53

You haven't installed PHP properly. Read here for instructions.

Are you sure, that you have mod_php installed? This looks like, that the Apache couldn't interpret the PHP script.

If you are on windows I would recommend: Apache Friends
