Andy, it sounds like you do not have apache configured correctly to handle php. You might look at this…but ignore the “mod_php” part, you want to use php-fpm

Advice please ! 😊
I have a server which has been running Observium well for some time.
Although upgrading the Observium build is easy enough following the instructions at Updating - Observiumhttps://docs.observium.org/updating/#upgrading-the-subscription-edition-to-the-very-latest-version this obviously does not update the O/S itself.
I had a try at upgrading following online instructions yesterday but after he upgrade was complete the Observium web interface would not display – I just got a page of text which I assumed to be PHP script being displayed rather than “running”.
Does anyone have any idiot proof (ie aimed at Linux novice) guidance to upgrade the OS without breaking Observium ?
Luckily I had taken a snapshot of the VM so could roll back without any drama.
Thanks,
Andy Hartwell
