I have ubuntu 14.04 desktop, I have apache2 php5 and all those packages installed. Yet PHP scripts won't run.. My site config:

ServerAdmin seven@localhost
DocumentRoot /home/seven/html


    php_admin_flag engine on
    
        SetHandler application/x-httpd-php
    
    Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
    AllowOverride None
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
    Require all granted

ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined

I've tried tons of different combinations. I hope it's just a stupid mistake in this code.

I find the best way to install a lamp server on a debian based system is to simply run:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install tasksel
tasksel install lamp-server

It does all the configuration for you. But you should still learn how it all interconnects.

After you can open up /etc/apache2/sites-available/000-default and add/alter your virtual hosts.
