How to restore PHP to the original configuration?

Question

I did something wrong and now my PHP is not working anymore.

I'm using OS X Lion. I can I restore it to the original configuration?

There should be a /etc/php.ini.default file that you can copy to php.ini.

	I didn't have the `/etc/php.ini`. I did what you said but id doesn't work. If I try to open a php page in my Sites folder it shows me the code. Maybe it's a problem with apache? – lucaghera Feb 11 '12 at 13:28
	Look in /etc/apache2/httpd.conf and make sure LoadModule php5_module libexec/apache2/libphp5.so is uncommented. – pät Feb 11 '12 at 13:39
	I did it and it worked...however it was in `/private/etc/apache2`. Why do I have 2 versions? Is it normal the fact that if I go to `/localhost/~luca/phpmyadmin` it works but `/localhost/~luca/phpmyadmin/index.php` shows me the php code? – lucaghera Feb 11 '12 at 13:42
	1) /etc is just a symlink to /private/etc. And 2) no it's not normal. Maybe browser cache? – pät Feb 11 '12 at 13:46
	2) Yes, it was! Thanks! – lucaghera Feb 11 '12 at 16:04
