should I change the top one?

Just remove the # from the beginning of these two lines:

Ah.... in that case, just remove the # sign from the last six lines.

Then
apt-get update
apt-get install phpmyadmin

oops... mjrich was quicker

Anyway, when phpmyadmin is up and running, you can follow my instructions in the previous page.

The upload your website files to /var/www
(Edit the file containing database settings, if necessary)

Good luck

... and don't forget to add some sort of security to phpmyadmin .

An .htaccess file at the very least (and preferably install an SSL cert as well).

WOW that was pretty cool!!!! what was that file?

http://97.107.135.162/phpmyadmin
does it look like I did everything correctly?

That's the raw php. For some reason, your php processor's not doing what it should. I'd restart Apache (though apt should have done this anyway):

/etc/init.d/apache2 restart

OKay i did that but I am still seeing a raw php file... mhhh

What about
apt-get install php5
/etc/init.d/apache2 restart

Apache seems to think php's there though, e.g.

GET http://97.107.135.162/foo | grep -i php

Odd.

That's strange. Let's run a simple test to see what's going on.

nano /var/www/index.php

Put the following line in it, and save.
<?php phpinfo(); ?>

Point your browser at
http://97.107.135.162/

Do you see the text you just entered, or do you see a lot of other stuff in colorful tables?

If the test fails and you just see the one line, try adding the following to /etc/apache2/sites-available/default

(If the previous test succeeds and you see colorful tables, you must not do this.)

<Location />
AddType text/html .php .phps
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php .php
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php-source .phps
</Location>

You can put it anywhere you want, but the best location is probably just before the ScriptAlias stuff.

Now restart apache...
/etc/init.d/apache2 restart

Cross your fingers & try again.

okay yeah the first thing didnt work so I will try the other

root@li65-162:~# /etc/apache2/sites-available/default
-bash: /etc/apache2/sites-available/default: Permission denied

nano /etc/apache2/sites-available/default
