Why isn't IIS executing the PHP code of my site root index.php file?

Question

IIS is literally sending <?php ... ?> code to the browser rather then executing it.

But, only for the root http://domain.com/index.php file.

All other .php files in that folder and index.php files in subfolders execute as expected.

How can I get my root index.php code to execute?

Update: "index.php" is a Default Document of my Web Site...

Answer 1

It seems you have properly configured your handlers. If you're using <? ... ?> make sure you have short_open_tag = On in your php.ini.
