Website Downloads a File instead of Loading Index
| Posted by jweeb, 05-26-2011, 09:10 PM |
| Hi,
One of my client's websites - geylangchurch.com downloads a "download" file automatically when it is viewed, instead of displaying the index page. This website uses Joomla.
The strange thing is that I have other Joomla and PHP type websites as well, and they don't have the same problem.
Anyone knows how to resolve it?

| check the .htaccess for AddHandler or AddType and remove it.

| ok check the parent folders .htaccess . Then make a phpinfo page on mail document root ( in cpanel servers /usr/local/apache/htdocs/phpinfo.php ) and access it over browser , and check if it woks . If it won't works , then your apache_ php configuration having issues.
Are you using cpanel ?
