Good question. the tutorial didnt cover that.

https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-wordpress-with-lamp-on-ubuntu-16-04

proceeded to look anyway and when i opened up the /etc/apache2/sites-available/wordpress.conf it was blank so left it.

how can i attach them.

can you at least give me the exact format for the url i need to type.
I have a suspicion the tutorial i followed missed out some important config stuff.

i get what looks like a cross between an error and the install page written in what looks like php.

All i get is what looks like php thrown at me, the worst error message in history.
I have php installed, it works, mysql works, frickin firefox works, why does wordpress refuse to?
It makes no frickin’ sense. i jumped through all the stupid hoops.

i just copied the bits with enabled/disabled etc.

Server API Apache 2.0 Handler
Virtual Directory Support disabled
Configuration File (php.ini) Path /etc/php/7.0/apache2
Loaded Configuration File /etc/php/7.0/apache2/php.ini
Scan this dir for additional .ini files /etc/php/7.0/apache2/conf.d
Debug Build no
Thread Safety disabled
Zend Signal Handling disabled
Zend Memory Manager enabled
Zend Multibyte Support provided by mbstring
IPv6 Support enabled
DTrace Support available, disabled

I am aware it did not install mir, but something in the tutorial i followed broke something.
Server may be possibly repaired( for now)
I dont understand why i can see the test.php i created as well as the apache page but not the WP installer.
would providing the text of the php page help?
I can also confirm the database is set up.
Looks like a period of trial of every possible solution i find online.

Thanks for the response
I get the php info page, i can also get the apache “it works” page, i cannot get the WP installer to work.
i now have bigger issues. something called mir (never heard of or installed it) now refuses to work and wordpress has officially broken my server. There goes all my media and animation work, thank you WP.
Without a fresh install i wont get this working and i have had enough. 5 minutes, LMFAO.
