A several years ago I ran a public network out of my apartment. I had email, www, etc. etc. It all worked fine. Then one day a couple of years ago we decided that we could not afford to pay for a public IP address anymore, so we had it turned off. I haven't touched apache since then, but we still run that box as it's faster than all the others and runs distcc well. We had a picture page that I wrote back in 2005 and occassionally when we have company over we use it to show them pictures that we've taken. I went to the site in my web browser this evening, and saw only PHP code printed on the background image. I've checked the usual suspects:
carter apache2 # cat /etc/conf.d/apache2 # /etc/conf.d/apache2: config file for /etc/init.d/apache2 # When you install a module it is easy to activate or deactivate the modules # and other features of apache using the APACHE2_OPTS line. Every module should # install a configuration in /etc/apache2/modules.d. In that file will be an # <IfDefine NNN> where NNN is the option to enable that module. # Here are the options available in the default configuration: # USERDIR Enables /~username mapping to /home/username/public_html # INFO Enables mod_info, a useful module for debugging # PROXY Enables mod_proxy # DAV Enables mod_dav # DAV_FS Enables mod_dav_fs (you should enable this when you enable DAV # unless you know what you are doing) # SSL Enables SSL # SSL_DEFAULT_VHOST Enables default vhost for SSL (you should enable this # when you enable SSL unless you know what you are doing) # LDAP Enables mod_ldap # AUTH_LDAP Enables authentication through mod_ldap # DEFAULT_VHOST Enables the default virtual host in /var/www/localhost/htdocs APACHE2_OPTS="-D DEFAULT_VHOST -D PHP5 -D MAILMAN -D USERDIR" # Extended options for advanced uses of Apache ONLY # You don't need to edit these unless you are doing crazy Apache stuff # As not having them set correctly, or feeding in an incorrect configuration # via them will result in Apache failing to start # YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED. # ServerRoot setting #SERVERROOT=/usr/lib/apache2 # Configuration file location # - If this does NOT start with a '/', then it is treated relative to # $SERVERROOT by Apache #CONFIGFILE=/etc/apache2/httpd.conf # Location to log startup errors to # They are normally dumped to your terminal. #STARTUPERRORLOG="/var/log/apache2/startuperror.log" # Environment variables to keep # All environment variables are cleared from apache # Use this to preserve some of them # NOTE!!!

There ARE files there. What am I missing here? I looked at http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/apache/doc/troubleshooting.xml and it said that the browser cache might be full, so I closed the browser, deleted the cache directory files, and reopened the browser.
