Apache. Below is an extract of an (to now) unanswered question:

...
<FilesMatch \.php$>
   SetHandler application/x-httpd-php
</FilesMatch

Apparently this should be part of the addtype directive. I don't
understand which file I am to edit and add the code shown above.

So perhaps apache is not configured but I don't know how to test this.
