arg! i have been attempting to fix my problems non stop for about 3 days now and i finally broke down and need to ask for help. it started a couple days ago when none of my hosted site domains names would work, but the ip address would. i did the bind fix and all was well. i also upgrades my kernel and went from centos 4.3 to 4.4. i then got brave as everything i was doing was going great, and i upgrade to apache 2. what a mistake! it was been downhill from there. i have rebuilt apache countless times, i though my backups were making backup of everything including whm and all but it appears i was mistaken as i cannot find a way to rollback my entire whm/apache and all other system settings. i have zend installed as i use modernbill for billing, i was using php 5.1.4, when i did the apache upgrade i told it to upgrade php to 5.1.6 . at first the apache builts were not working because i had changed a username earlier in the week and whm did not make the changes in the httpd.conf file so i had to go in there and manually make the changes. now the apache was building but things were all screwed up still, i had to go in httpd.conf and make a bunch of changes just to get apache to startup (using the httpd.conf configtest i was able to tell what needed to be changed). well needless to say i still have problems. i gave up on apache 2 and went back to apache 1.3.37 (i had 36 installed before starting all this) and tried to put php bag the way it was. since the new easyapache in whm is WAY more complicated than it used to be, i dont know which settings to enable or disable when it comes to apache, but the php part of it i understand. i downgraded to cpanel current install from edge, which gave me the friendly looking whm apache upgrade screen again and built it with the correct settings. site still did not work, i went back to edge, and it still doesnt work. when i go to my site the browser is trying to download the php files. i have csf installed and have gotten a couple hundred emails saying lfd: Suspicious process running with the body : Time: Sun Sep 10 10:18:33 2006
PID: 14519
Account: nobody
Uptime: 63 seconds


Executable:

/usr/local/apache1/bin/httpd (deleted)


Command Line (often faked in exploits):

/usr/local/apache/bin/httpd -DSSL under user nobody

im lost, frustrated and have no idea where to turn. please help!

This may be risky but after 3 days, yikes, I can't imagine this would hurt anything further.

Try a rebuild and check the box that says
Reset Apache Config to Default (last resort)

Be sure you do have things backed up. First I would go through the httpd.conf backups and save a copy from the last working version pre apache2.

I did this for a client that was in the a situation like you and Things were back running fast and easy on their high traffic site.

Ok, your php modules are probably not loading.
check your httpd.conf to see if your php modules are either missing or commented out.

If you saved a good working httpd conf, replacing that may be the only fix you need to get your php back quick and easy.

thanks for your assistance so far heres where i am, i downgraded to current on whm. then rebuilt apache in whm using php 5.1.6 with all of my desired settings. when i go to my site it still tried to download the php file. when i login to the client cpanel i am showing the following server info :

Operating system Linux
Service Status Click to View
Kernel version 2.6.9-42.0.2.EL
Machine Type i686
Apache version 1.3.36 (Unix)
PERL version 5.8.7
Path to PERL /usr/bin/perl
Path to sendmail /usr/sbin/sendmail
Installed Perl Modules Click to View
PHP version
MySQL version 5.0.24-standard
cPanel Build 10.9.0-CURRENT 5
Theme cPanel X v2.5.0
Documentation Click to View

when i go to apache status in whm i am shown:
Server Version: Apache/1.3.37 (Unix) mod_gzip/1.3.26.1a mod_auth_passthrough/1.8 mod_log_bytes/1.2 mod_bwlimited/1.4 FrontPage/5.0.2.2635.SR1.2 mod_ssl/2.8.28 OpenSSL/0.9.7a PHP-CGI/0.1b
Server Built: Sep 10 2006 21:38:29

so it appears the apache version is not showing as the same on the whm as it is on the cpanel. also note that no php version shows up at all.

i have attached my current httpd.conf file. thanks again for any and all help!!

Ok thanks for the config file...

Just as I thought, your php modules are commented out. Find these lines in your config file,

#LoadModule php5_module libexec/libphp5.so

Remove the # to look like this

LoadModule php5_module libexec/libphp5.so

Also Find this line
#AddModule mod_php5.c

and again remove the # to look like this

AddModule mod_php5.c

then restart apache. Your php will probably work fine.

i made those changes to the httpd.conf and i am still being prompted to download and i am still showing no php version when i login to client cpanel area. also, the site i had originally changed the username for does not load at all via the domain name.

when i go to my site some pages come up with

Warning: include(home.php) [function.include]: failed to open stream: Operation not permitted in /home/fearless/public_html/x.php on line 27

Warning: include() [function.include]: Failed opening 'home.php' for inclusion (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/fearless/public_html/x.php on line 27

and my modernbill products site comes up with:

Warning: include(website_widget_creator.php) [function.include]: failed to open stream: Operation not permitted in /home/fearless/public_html/sales/billing/app-modernbill-order/products.php on line 47

Warning: include() [function.include]: Failed opening 'website_widget_creator.php' for inclusion (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/fearless/public_html/sales/billing/app-modernbill-order/products.php on line 47

Go on, have a guess
For the lfd issues, you can add the following to /etc/csf/csf.pignore to prevent it being triggered:

exe:/usr/local/apache1/bin/httpd

Then restart lfd.
