Crap... did I break my host? Everytime I load a page, it asks if I want to download it.

Hey guys... wondering if anyone can provide me with some quick answers. www.cmulambdas.com anything I load besides an image file, it asks if I want to download it. I think I broke something on the server? None of the PHP or HTML files work, it'll ask if I want to download then it'll open from my cache. Why would a server do this? Thanks...

Update: Looks like .htm and .html files are working. PHP might be down? Weird thing is I think the site is getting cached? For some people they are viewing a file that I already renamed to index.php.old.
 
I'm not getting asked to download anything, it works just fine. Using IE for XP Home.

Where specifically should I look on the site?
 
Woah Paulson.. wassup. Haven't seen you posting for a while?!

This is %*@$ weird shi... so I was uploading something and by accident I accessed it at the same time, then everything went to hell. I asked around, some people can view the page fine others get the same thing Paulson is getting.

I logged onto the server, renamed my default index file and uploaded a simple page to test. I have both files on there now, index.htm and index.php both with <?php print "Hello."; ?> as the only thing there.

The weird thing is... for people who can see the site, it's the old index.php that I renamed to index.php.old.
 
Okay from what I gathered from my friend, for those of you who see a black background and a picture, it's a cached version of the site. What you are seeing is actually now renamed to index.php.old

Now... why would the server ask the visitor to download the page rather than processing it for them to view? If it was working we should see a simple blank web page with Hello.
 
Thanks for all your help guys! Amazing... I killed PHP processing on my server =P.

I guess I need to figure out how to fix it now. Don't even know where to submit a trouble ticket at SolidInternet. Guess it's time to poke around those forums. So I'm guessing something's caching the site for those of you who are able to view the original index file? It's weird because someone living across campus from me is getting the cached file... and others aren't.

Rossman, gottadeal... damn that's a lotta text!

 
i enabled gzip compression on my forum once and it was already enabled elsewhere

did the same thing if i recall right

edit>i am using php nuke 6.9 and had to use anaylze to get it fixed

anaylze has a setting that resets gzip compression to off

it sounds like you are running php and invision forums together

if you are and gzip was enabled in php then you cannot enable it for invision as it causes this

analyze will allow you to change gzip to off
