I opened the /etc/apache2/mods-enabled directory, then see the php5.conf

SetHandler application/x-httpd-php

SetHandler application/x-httpd-php-source

To re-enable php in user directories comment the following lines
# (from to .) Do NOT set it to On as it
#prevents .htaccess files from disabling it.

php_admin_value engine Off

So, I followed the instruction, voila!

I've tried this (and just about everything else) but still get this error
Warning: Unknown: failed to open stream: Permission denied in Unknown on line 0

Fatal error: Unknown: Failed opening required '/home/lonetree/public_html/index.php' (include_path='.:/inc:./inc:../inc:../../inc:../../../inc:../../../../inc:/usr/share/php') in Unknown on line 0

Please help

Hi, I followed your instructions but when I visit the http://localhost/~username/ page, it triggers a download and I get the following download error in a window: "/tmp/SeJ0SBf_.phtml-1.part could not be opened, because the associated helper application does not exist. Change the association in your preferences."
I looked online but could not find any solution . What can possibly be wrong ?

I was struggling since the first days I started using Kubuntu as my operating system, I really wanted something similar to cpanel installations in my development environment.
Your article did the trick, good luck

what is the apache error log? probably you should recompile php and suPhp.

I have had to remove the line of code "suPHP_Engine on" from the userdir.conf file so apache could start again. An now without it php does not work when browsing to a users public_html folder. But it does still work in /var/www/

Please help
