Using htaccess to make all html pages to run as php files

Question

I need to run all of my  html files as  php files and I don t have time to change all of the links before our presentation tomorrow  Is there any way to  hack  this with my Apache server

You need to add the following line into your Apache config file:

AddType application/x-httpd-php .htm .html

You also need two other things:

Allow Overridding

In your_site.conf file (e.g. under /etc/apache2/mods-available in my case), add the following lines:
```
<Directory "<path_to_your_html_dir(in my case: /var/www/html)>">
    AllowOverride All
</Directory>
```
Enable Rewrite Mod

Run this command on your machine:
```
sudo a2enmod rewrite 
```
After any of those steps, you should restart apache:
```
sudo service apache2 restart
```

None of the answers posted here worked for me   In my case the problem was  by the one hand  that the  conf file   etc apache2 sites-available default-ssl conf or  etc apache2 sites-available 000-default conf  did not contain the directive AllowOverride All for the site directory  which caused the  htaccess to not been processed  To solve this  add    lt Directory  var www html  gt          Options Indexes FollowSymLinks         AllowOverride All         Require all granted  lt  Directory gt    On the other hand  the problem was that the  htaccess was created by the root user  and therefore the apache user could not read it  So  changing the file owner solved definitely the problem   chown www-data www-data  htaccess

On Dreamhost Servers you can refer to this page that at time of writing indicates you may use the following for php 7 2 with FastCGI   AddHandler fcgid-script  html FcgidWrapper   dh cgi-system php72 cgi   html   Or if you are using php5 cgi  not FastCGI    AddHandler php5-cgi  html

This is in edition to all other right answers  If you are not able to find the correct Handler  Simply create a  php file with the following contents   lt  php echo   SERVER  REDIRECT HANDLER      gt   and run open this file in browser   Use this output in  htaccess file Create a  htaccess file at the root of your website usually a folder named public html or htdocs on linux servers  and add this line  AddType   THE OUTPUT FROM ABOVE FILE    html  htm  Example AddType application x-httpd-php70  html  htm  Important Note  If you see blank page or Notice  Undefined index  REDIRECT HANDLER Try default in  htaccess AddHandler application x-httpd-php  html

Create a  htaccess file at the root of your website and add this line    Apache2   Ubuntu Debian  use this directive   AddType application x-httpd-php  html  htm   Or  from comment below   AddType application x-httpd-php5  html  htm   If your are running PHP as CGI  probably not the case   you should write instead   AddHandler application x-httpd-php  html  htm

AddHandler application x-httpd-php  php  html  htm    or AddType application x-httpd-php  php  htm  html

User · Answer

I think this is the best way to run php script  on html and htm pages   AddType application x-httpd-php5  html  htm

User · Answer

You may also use the H or T flag of mod rewrite to force all  html files to be parsed by php handler    using H  Handler  flag    RewriteEngine on  RewriteRule    html htm   -  H application x-httpd-php5    using T  Type  flag     RewriteEngine on  RewriteRule    html htm   -  T application x-httpd-php5    Or you can add more extensions to the rule pattern seprated by a pipe   that you want to be parsed by php handler  ex    RewriteRule    html htm txt foo   -  T application x-httpd-php5    the example above will change the mime type of files that end with  html    htm    txt    foo to php   Note   on some servers you will have to change php5 to php to get this example to work in handler string   Change it   T application x-httpd-php5    to   T application x-httpd-php
